First pregnancy characteristics and blood pressure (BP) measures may be associated with second pregnancy hypertensive disorder risk. We examined the association between first pregnancy risk factors and second pregnancy hypertensive disorders.
METHODS
Electronic medical records of nulliparas (n = 26,787) delivering at least twice in Utah (2002–2010) were used.
