Abstract

Background: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) predispose a woman to maternity-related cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, there is limited literature on HDP among women of African descent in Canada.

Methods and design: A convergent mixed-method study will be used to investigate the intersection of self-reported HDP risks in women of African descent in Canada with a history of a HDP (quantitative, cross-sectional survey) and explore the perception and experiences of women of African descent living in Canada with a history of a HDP in relation to the intersection of risk factors (critical qualitative inquiry, interviews). Quantitative analysis will use SPSS V. 27.0 and thematic analysis will be conducted using NVivo V. 12. A joint display will be used to combine the quantitative and qualitative results.

Discussion: Through the lens of intersectionality, the proposed study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the intersection of risks for HDP among women of African descent in Canada with a history of HDP. Furthermore, results could inform future strategies to reduce cardiovascular disease risks.

Trial registration number: This is registered in the Open Sciences Framework as follows: https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/R6CKY.

期刊介绍： Frontiers? Which frontiers? Where exactly are the frontiers of cardiovascular medicine? And who should be defining these frontiers? At Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine we believe it is worth being curious to foresee and explore beyond the current frontiers. In other words, we would like, through the articles published by our community journal Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, to anticipate the future of cardiovascular medicine, and thus better prevent cardiovascular disorders and improve therapeutic options and outcomes of our patients.
