| Summary: | Objectives: This study aimed to establish normal blood pressure reference ranges across gestation and maternal characteristics. Methods: We conducted a follow-up study including 29,200 Chinese normal pregnant women. Multilevel restrictive cubic spline models were used to calculate normal blood pressure reference ranges among all population and stratified groups. Results: In all normal pregnancies, the normal reference range of systolic blood pressure were 93.94-118.74 mmHg(2.5th-97.5th) and 97.35-124.63 mmHg at 12 and 37 weeks gestation, respectively while 58.79-74.21 mmHg and 59.19-78.25 mmHg were for diastolic blood pressure at 12 and 37 weeks gestation, which differed in subgroups stratified by prepregnancy body mass index and maternal age. Conclusion: This study provides evidence for blood pressure management in Chinese pregnant women. |
