Mia Robinson is a 38-year old African American woman who recently transferred care to a new obstetric provider and presents at 34 0/7 weeks of gestation according to her LMP. This is her second pregnancy. She delivered a full-term son by vaginal birth 11 years ago and reported that her pregnancy was uncomplicated. She reports that this pregnancy she was started on “blood pressure medication” about 12 weeks ago because her provider at the time said her blood pressure was too high. She also started taking aspirin every day. She recently moved and had missed her last OB appointment and is now new to this OB practice. She denies smoking, alcohol use, and any illicit drug use. This pregnancy is with a new partner.
She had a follow-up appointment today as her blood pressure was elevated at her first routine appointment yesterday (154/92 mmHg). Her blood pressure at today’s appointment was 178/94 mmHg. She had a 24-hour urine completed which revealed proteinuria. She is now being admitted for blood pressure control and further monitoring due to preeclampsia.
