Barriers and Facilitators to Early Postpartum Blood Pressure Follow‐Up After Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy: An Integrative Review

Disparities in early postpartum BP follow-up are rooted in intersecting systems of racism, classism, and structural disadvantage. These findings align with prior research showing the benefits of remote BP monitoring but extend the literature by identifying populations that remain excluded. Equity-focused strategies, including remote BP monitoring, midwifery-led care, and policy reform, are urgently needed to improve postpartum outcomes and reduce disparities. Further research should evaluate how these strategies can be implemented to address structural barriers and engage populations most affected by HDP.

Abstract

Disparities in early postpartum BP follow-up are rooted in intersecting systems of racism, classism, and structural disadvantage. These findings align with prior research showing the benefits of remote BP monitoring but extend the literature by identifying populations that remain excluded. Equity-focused strategies, including remote BP monitoring, midwifery-led care, and policy reform, are urgently needed to improve postpartum outcomes and reduce disparities. Further research should evaluate how these strategies can be implemented to address structural barriers and engage populations most affected by HDP.
