Prevalence and factors associated with adverse birth outcomes among women with chronic hypertension in Rangpur: A multi-center cross-sectional study
This study observed a high prevalence of adverse birth outcomes among pregnant women with chronic hypertension who had an institutional delivery. The finding warrants immediate community-based action focused on the important factors to reduce adverse birth outcomes among hypertensive mothers. Further longitudinal studies are needed to identify any causal association between important variables and adverse birth outcomes.
