Another Publication Alert!!! I’m still not done—the work for maternal health equity continues!!! See this new open access review by Boston College Connell School of Nursing PhD Student Jill Doyle, CNM, MS and Christopher Lee Proud to share our latest publication: Barriers and Facilitators to Early Postpartum Blood Pressure Follow-Up After Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy: An Integrative Review https://lnkd.in/ePb7Bq2U This work highlights the multilevel factors that influence postpartum follow-up care and underscores the urgent need for equity-focused strategies to improve outcomes for birthing people—especially those most impacted by systemic inequities. We must continue to push for care models, policies, and practices that truly support patients beyond delivery. #MaternalHealthEquity #postpartumcare #HypertensiveDisorders #midwifery #NursingResearch

A patient develops preeclampsia and is discharged home after giving birth. Clinical guidelines recommend a blood pressure check within 7-10 days postpartum—a critical window when severe complications can occur. Yet many patients never receive this follow-up. Why? Our new study, published in the Journal of Midwifery & Women's Health, examines this question through an integrative review of the literature. Using an intersectionality framework, we found that intersecting factors—from structural racism and inadequate insurance to limited care access and digital exclusion—shape who receives timely follow-up and who does not. 💡 Key insight: Disparities in postpartum follow-up are not about individual behavior—they reflect how care is structured, delivered, and made accessible. As a midwife, maternal health researcher, and mother, improving postpartum care after hypertensive disorders of pregnancy is deeply important to me. This is the first manuscript from my doctoral dissertation, and I am especially grateful to my co-authors, Christopher Lee for his mentorship and support of my research training, and Lucinda Canty PhD CNM FAAN FACNM FADLN for her leadership and commitment to advancing maternal health equity. I'm also thankful for the supportive community at Boston College Connell School of Nursing. 🔗 Read the article: https://lnkd.in/en6BmSkS #MaternalHealthEquity #PostpartumCare #Preeclampsia #HypertensiveDisordersOfPregnancy #MidwiferyResearch
