Women's experiences of follow-up medical care for preeclampsia in Australia: A qualitative study.
Background and objectives: Preeclampsia is associated with increased risk of later-life cardiovascular, metabolic and mental health disorders. Follow-up is key to managing this risk, yet little is known about how women are managed in Australia. The aim of this study was to understand women's experiences of medical follow-up care and support in Australia after preeclampsia.
Method: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 women with previous preeclampsia residing in Australia. Data were analysed using thematic analysis.
Results: Three themes were generated: ongoing health impact; craving accurate information; and fragmented follow-up care. Participants reported ongoing physical and mental health symptoms, ad hoc information provision and fragmented follow-up. Women valued continuity of care and debriefing.
Discussion: There is a significant gap between recommended medical follow-up and the actual care women receive following preeclampsia. The value of debriefing for women after preeclampsia warrants more research.
