Abstract

Background: Women who have experienced pre-eclampsia (PE) may also face additional health problems in later life, as the condition is associated with an increased risk of death from 2-fold increased risk of long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD), hypertension, stroke, an approximate 5-12-fold increased risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), metabolic syndrome, and diabetes.

Methods: Method was randomized controlled trial. Women with PE who delivered in PGIMER will be enrolled and will be allocated into experimental ad control group using a computer random table with allocation concealment. Enrolment will be done at the time of discharge; baseline assessment will be done 6 weeks and the intervention bundle will be implemented to the women in experimental group. The women in control group will receive routine care. Women in both the groups will be followed up at 6 months.

Conclusions: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of “extended postpartum comprehensive health care bundle (EP CHC bundle)” on selected outcomes of women with preeclampsia at 6 months. The comprehensive health care bundle will be designed with the inputs from all stakeholders, has the potential to suit the dynamic nature of management of women with preeclampsia after delivery.
