Key is constant communication with key stakeholders.1. Quarterly meeting to discuss problem cases. This is a multidisciplinary group with both chairs of the dept. Google spreadsheet is kept. We review all severe HTN pts who come up to OB and their ER visit timing is also reviewed.2. MFM provided education on definitions and management. This needs to be done more often because of turnover.3. Simulations scheduled . Real time scenario with one staff member role playing a postpartum pt with elevated BP. We had observers in the room. This took a long time because of wait times.4. All female pts are asked if they are currently pregnant or were pregnant in the past year. We have suggested putting up a poster .5. Ob IT rep has discussed with the ER IT about standard order sets.6. Ob rapid response team called to ER resus room which has a Pyxis with appropriate medications mixed ie Magnesium sulfate .
