Key objectives
Provide a tool for the remote management of high blood pressure in pregnancy. Reducing the amount of times expectant mothers have to come into the hospital for routine Blood Pressure readings and urinalysis, preventing patients waiting a long time to be seen.
Outcome measures
Equip expectant mothers with the medical devices they need to self-manage their high blood pressure, as well as providing the tools they need to interact digitally rather than relying on face to face consultations. Women to check BP at home and have a care plan (including an escalation plan)
Current Baselines
All activity is face to face - expectant mothers are travelling into the hospital at least weekly to have their BP and urine checked, normally waiting at least an hour in clinical to be seen.

<p>Your blood pressure has recently been high in the pregnancy. Raised blood pressure can be the first sign of developing a condition called pre-eclampsia in pregnancy. This is when there is raised blood pressure either with or without protein in the urine. In addition, some women also experience symptoms such as headaches, visual disturbance or pain in the epigastric area.</p>
<p>Alternatively you may have had a pre-eclampsia/pregnancy induced hypertension in your previous pregnancy or suffer from chronic hypertension, which means you have 1 in 5 risk of redeveloping hypertensive disorder and therefore closer monitoring in the subsequent pregnancy is recommended.</p>
<p>This care plan is to help you and your family self-manage your high blood pressure while you are pregnant. Your healthcare providers will be able to observe your health records effectively and provide you with an individualised care plan for your pregnancy. You can use this plan as your online resource folder. You can access online links and track symptoms.</p>

<div class="cp_whiteBox">
<h2>What is pre-eclampsia:</h2>
<ul>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">Pre-eclampsia is a condition that affects up to 6% of pregnancies</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">The cause isn't fully understood but is thought to be caused by placenta not developing properly due to a problem with the blood vessels supplying it. Typically occurring after 20 weeks of pregnancy or soon after the baby is born.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">Early signs of pre-eclampsia include high blood pressure (hypertension) and protein in the urine (proteinuria)</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">Further symptoms can develop, including:
<ul>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">sudden increase in oedema - swelling of the feet, ankles, face and hands</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">severe, persistent headache</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">vision problems (blurred vision or seeing flashing lights)</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">epigastric pain (pain just below the ribs)</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">severe heartburn</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">nausea and vomiting</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">excessive weight gain caused by fluid retention</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">feeling very unwell with shortness of breath or chest pain</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">reduced movements of your baby</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">Number of things can increase your chances of developing pre-eclampsia. These risk factors are:
<ul>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">Pre-existing medical conditions: diabetes, chronic hypertension, kidney disease or auto-immune condition such as lupus or antiphospholipid syndrome</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">first pregnancy</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">age 40 years or older</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">pregnancy interval of more than 10 years</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">Body Mass Index (BMI) of 35 or more at first visit</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">family history of pre- eclampsia</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">multi-fetal pregnancy</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px; font-size:16px;">Hypertensive disorder in the previous pregnancy</li>

<h2>Monitoring recommendations:</h2>
<ul>
<p>We recommend you take your blood pressure daily, ideally at the same time. Take two readings - let us know the second reading.</p>
<p>You can use the Medopad app to enter your blood pressure and this will automatically update your record.</p>
<p>Please test your urine for protein as often as directed by your doctor at your first appointment to start home monitoring. This will be either daily or alternate days. You can update your symptoms at the same time.</p>
<p>To enter the BP, urine and symptoms, please use the 'Edit Plan' button at the top right hand corner of this page.</p>

<h2>Personalising your care</h2>
<p><b>This information resource is for everyone who is pregnant in Sussex and their partners/support person. It accompanies the information provided by your local maternity service. This is not part of your official maternity record, but should help to spark conversations with your healthcare professional to aid informed decision making around the care and support you may need. </b></p>
<p>This is your own personal journal of your thoughts and choices throughout this pregnancy. Recording your thoughts and preferences can help you to explore, understand and document your individual choices for pregnancy, birth and early parenthood. Your individual needs and wishes will help you plan your care and are likely to change and develop as your pregnancy progresses. You do not have to do this alone; your midwife, health visitor and obstetrician, should you need one, will support you. You can also involve partners, family and friends, the choice is yours. This is for you, whether this is your first baby or you are adding to your family. If in completing this section you identify areas where you are not sure or would like to find out more, please raise this the next time you speak to or see your midwife, health visitor or obstetrician. </p>
<p>You will always have access to this plan as a reminder of the journey you have been on and to help inform your next pregnancy (if you decide to do this all over again!). Your baby will go on to have their own personal health record, otherwise known as the Red Book, which your midwife or health visitor will give you.</p>
<p>We have divided your plan into four sections with suggested times to complete each section, but feel free to skip ahead - this is your plan, reflecting your choices.</p>
<ul>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Health and wellbeing in pregnancy <br /><i>Complete at the beginning of (or anytime during) your pregnancy </i></li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Your birth preferences <br /><i>Complete from 32-34 weeks of pregnancy</i></li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">After your baby is born <br /><i>Complete from 34 weeks of pregnancy</i></li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Reflections on our birth experience <br /><i>Complete after your baby's birth</i></li>
</ul>
<p>Your midwife, health visitor and/or doctor can help you to complete or adapt your personal care plan at any point, and you are encouraged to discuss your plans and preferences with them throughout pregnancy.</p>
<p><b>It is important to remember that a plan is just that - and that things may need to be reviewed and changed around your needs and the needs of your baby, to ensure care is always of high quality and safe.</b></p>
<p style="font-style: italic;">This plan was initially developed by the North West London Collaboration of Clinical Commissioning Groups as part of the maternity early adopters project. It has been further developed by the Sussex Local Maternity System, with thanks.</p>
<h3 class="purpleText">How do I use this plan?</h3>
<p>Simply click on the the pencil icon located in the top right of the screen to put your plan into 'Edit' mode, you can now start to enter your thoughts and preferences. You can fill in as little or as much as you want and then save your changes. Revisit the plan whenever you like as you progress through your pregnancy.</p>

<h2>Personalised birth preferences</h2>
<p>Your birth preferences support you (and your birth partner/s or support person) to make informed decisions about your care in labour. Sharing your preferences with your care providers enables them to personalise the care they give you. One of the most important emotional preparations is flexibility and preparing for multiple scenarios, rather than one fixed plan. Follow the link for more information about choice of place of birth .<a href="http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/pregnancy-and-baby/where-can-i-give-birth" target="_blank">www.nhs.uk/conditions/pregnancy-and-baby/where-can-i-give-birth</a></p>
<p>It is important to remember that your birth plan is personal to you. It depends on multiple factors, including what you would like, your medical history, your personal circumstances and what is available at your maternity service. What may be safe and practical for one person may not be safe and practical for another.</p>
<p>Please read the content and explore the links prior to completing this section. Work your way through the questions at your own pace. You can show this plan to your midwife from 34 weeks onwards.</p>

My Maternity Journey Care Plan
Key objectives
Provide women with a digital care plan to support them throughout their pregnancy, birth and beyond. To help aid communication and support women to feel in control and have a voice in their care.
Outcome measures
Equip women with a digital care plan that can be shared and edited by the patient and midwife and accessed by anyone attached to the woman's care. Allow women a place to document their birth plan and wishes to feel more in control when giving birth. The ability to access and edit their care plan when anything in their plan changes.
Current Baselines

<h2>How to get the most out of your "My Maternity Journey"</h2>
<p>We know how difficult it can be to keep stating your needs and choices over and over again and to keep track of the decisions you have made. "My Maternity Journey" is a starting point to summarise what matters to you and your family and how you would like to be supported throughout your maternity care.</p>
<p>You will have a number of plans that relate to you, and your "My Maternity Journey" will be at the centre of them all. Your "My Maternity Journey" should not include the amount of detail that is in these other plans (such as condition-specific care and treatment plans). Instead, it is the starting point in getting to know you and understanding what is important to you and your family.</p>
<p>Your "My Maternity Journey" belongs to you and you can choose to share it with who you wish. It can be used to record:</p>
<ul>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What is important to you and your family. This may include anything, but is likely to include your values and expectations about being pregnant, giving birth and becoming a mother.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Your home/family/professional life and support networks.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Any fears or concerns you might have</li>
</ul>
<p>You can then use it to set out the decisions you make about the care and support you want to receive, taking into account the information above, and including any mental healthcare you might need. It should reflect your decisions about location of care, particularly where you want to give birth, your wishes for your labour and your wishes should a (further) complication arise.</p>
<h2>How do I make sure I get the most out of my "My Maternity Journey"?</h2>
<p>This is your personal summary of what is important to you and your care and support. You keep it with you along with any other records so you can share it with who you feel needs to see it. It is important to take it to every appointment or meeting about your care.</p>
<p>As "My Maternity Journey" is your document, you can update or amend it whenever you feel it necessary. This ensures it remains up-to-date and accurately represents what matters to you. There is no need to complete all sections at once but it might be useful to, for example, think about what you might need after your baby is born, while you are still pregnant, so plans can be put in place.</p>
<h2>How others can support me to get the most out of "My Maternity Journey"?</h2>
<p>As you will bring your "My Maternity Journey" to all of your appointments everyone who offers you care and support can know what is important to you and how you want to be supported.</p>
<h2>How do I complete "My Maternity Journey"?</h2>
<p>"My Maternity Journey" is for you to complete as you are the expert of your life. You can do this alone or with the support of someone you trust, this may be a family member, friend, professional, or voluntary organisation. It is important that you have time to think about what you want to include and complete it at your own pace. For now you can complete it by handwriting but you will be able to update it electronically in the future.</p>
<p><b>TThings you may want to think about and considering sharing:</b></p>
<ul>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Who are the most important people in your life?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Who knows you well?</li>

<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Who is your biggest supporter now?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Do you see family/friends? How do you spend your time with them?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Who else supports you? e.g. Health, Social Care, Voluntary Services, other</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What do you feel you would like support to achieve during your maternity journey? What support from additional services might you need?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What commitments do you have that may impact upon your care? e.g. other children, carer for other relatives, work or employment?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Will any past experiences impact upon your maternity care?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What makes you stressed, unhappy or upset and what can people do to help with this?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What do you do to stay as healthy as possible?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What hinders you from staying as healthy as possible?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What support from additional services might you need? (stop smoking, housing, weight management)</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What are the best and worst times for you to attend appointments?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">If you need information, how would you like it presented to you?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">How can you be supported to understand the information given to you?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">If English is not your first language, will you need an interpreter? Will you need an interpreter for every appointment?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">What will improve your experience of maternity care?</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Do you feel there is anything missing?</li>

<h2>Home Blood Pressure Monitoring</h2>
<p>Your clinical team has recommended monitoring of your blood pressure. This can be because you have had one of the following</p>
<ul>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;"><b>Chronic hypertension</b> - this is raised blood pressure, which you had prior to becoming pregnant</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;"><b>New onset raised blood pressure in pregnancy or after birth</b> and is called pregnancy induced or gestational hypertension and when it is associated with high levels of protein in the urine it is called pre-eclampsia.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;"><b>You have a medical condition which means you are at greater risk of developing high blood pressure</b> - for example women with kidney disease, type 1 or 2 diabetes and some autoimmune conditions.</li>
</ul>
<p>Home monitoring is a useful extra to your routine postnatal check-ups and can keep you in control of your care.</p>
<h2>How to measure your blood pressure at home</h2>
<ol>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Your midwife or doctor will inform you about often they would like you to monitor your blood pressure </li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Always measure your blood pressure using the same arm (normally the left arm).</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">You should usually measure your blood pressure on a weekday morning between 9 am and 12 noon</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">You need to have a bare arm, so roll up a loose sleeve or slip arm out of clothing.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Sit on a chair with your back supported and feet flat on the floor. Rest for 5 minutes before beginning to take blood pressure readings.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Put the cuff onto your arm so that the air tube points towards your wrist. The yellow line on the cuff should be over the inside of your elbow.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Adjust the bottom edge of the cuff so that it is about 2 cm above the inside of the elbow joint.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Tighten the cuff around the arm and secure using the Velcro.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Rest your arm on a table or across your lap with your hand slightly open and the palm facing upward.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Once the machine is set up and you have the cuff in the correct position, and you are ready to start, press the start button on the front of the machine to take a reading.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">The Microlife VSA model requires you to pump the cuff up manually.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Relax, do not move your arm muscles and do not talk until the measurement is completed.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Each time you measure your blood pressure you will get two readings:</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">The top number (usually called SYS, short for systolic),</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">The bottom number of your blood pressure, (usually called DIA, short for diastolic)</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Measure your blood pressure twice, at least one minute apart.</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">Write down the second blood pressure reading (on your phone and/or upload to your CIE plan)</li>
<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">To enter your BP, please use the 'Edit Plan" button at the top right hand corner of this page, once you have entered it press save at the bottom of the page.</li>
