The aim of this study is to assess the effect of lower treatment threshold for initiating antihypertensive medication and tighter blood pressure control, using remote blood pressure monitoring, on reducing Emergency Room visits for our postpartum patients with hypertensive disease.~The investigators will study and compare two cohorts of patients. The first is a retrospective cohort, including patients delivered at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center. The second is a prospective cohort that will enroll patients immediately postpartum who are eligible for our treatment protocol.
