Abstract
Women with the hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) (preeclampsia [PE] and gestational hypertension [GHTN]) have increased risks of future diabetes. Postpartum glycemic testing offers early identification and treatment of dysglycemia, but evidence-based recommendations for this high-risk population are lacking. The objective of this study was to describe the risks of developing dysglycemia in women with normotensive and hypertensive pregnancies over the first 4 years postpartum.
