Domeyer-Klenske is senior author on study in American Journal of Perinatology

Amy Domeyer-Klenske, MD, associate professor and director of the Division of Academic Specialists in Obstetrics and Gynecology, co-authored a new article published in the American Journal of Perinatology. Co-authors include Laura Grogan, Erika Peterson, and Megan Flatley.

In “Impact of patient safety bundle and team-based training on obstetric hypertensive emergencies,” Domeyer-Klenske and co-authors aimed to increase the amount of obstetric patients with hypertension who received immediate care, in order to reduce pregnancy-related mortality rates.

“Implementation of a patient safety bundle led to a sustained 6 month improvement in the percentage of patients receiving appropriate treatment of obstetric hypertensive emergency within 60 minutes of the first severe hypertension measurement.”
