Babyscripts & MBAN Collaborate

The Mom and Baby Action Network Self-Measured Blood Pressure Monitoring Toolkit is designed to help healthcare providers, doulas, and maternal health advocates identify and implement SMBP solutions that fit their specific needs.

WASHINGTON, June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Babyscripts, the leading virtual maternity care program for managing obstetrics, announced their collaboration with March of Dimes and other maternal health industry stakeholders on the publication of the Mom and Baby Action Network (MBAN) Self-Measured Blood Pressure Monitoring Toolkit. The toolkit is a resource intended to help maternal health care providers and advocates implement blood pressure management in maternal health populations and improve outcomes, regardless of access barriers.

Self-measured blood pressure monitoring (SMBP) involves patients regularly measuring their own blood pressure outside of clinical settings using home blood pressure measurement devices. Blood pressure-related complications, including preeclampsia and other hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), affect nearly 15% of pregnancies and pose significant risks to long-term cardiovascular health. While many women are educated about recognizable symptoms—such as persistent headaches or swelling—HDP can often develop without any outward warning signs. In these cases, blood pressure monitoring becomes the only way to detect complications early, particularly outside of a doctor's office.

When patients can track, understand, and communicate their blood pressure readings to their healthcare providers, it allows for early intervention and helps prevent serious complications. The SMBP toolkit can help us achieve that goal.

Post this

Ensuring that women have the knowledge and tools to monitor their own blood pressure is critical. The MBAN SMBP Toolkit was designed to provide strategies to implement blood pressure management for healthcare organizations with differing resources, workflows, and patient needs. The toolkit provides:

  • A breakdown of SMBP program models to fit different clinical settings and patient risk levels
  • Case studies and best practices to guide adoption and integration
  • Resources to support implementation and optimize workflows.

With this toolkit, organizations can explore multiple approaches to seamlessly integrate SMBP into prenatal and postpartum care—from basic self-tracking to more advanced, tech-enabled monitoring solutions.

"Babyscripts has over a decade of data and on-the-ground experience that confirms that positive outcomes are linked to women having the knowledge and tools to monitor their own blood pressure," said Anish Sebastian, CEO and co-founder of Babyscripts. "When patients can track, understand, and communicate their blood pressure readings to their healthcare providers, it allows for early intervention and helps prevent serious complications. More than ever, it is critical that we get these effective, accessible solutions into the hands of patients, and the SMBP toolkit can help us achieve that goal."

"Empowering pregnant and postpartum patients with the tools and knowledge to monitor their own blood pressure is a critical step in reducing maternal health disparities and preventing life-threatening complications," said Kasey Rivas, Director, Strategic Partnerships at March of Dimes. "The toolkit equips healthcare systems, providers and advocates with practical strategies to integrate self-measured blood pressure monitoring into care in ways that are effective, accessible, and equitable. We want to ensure that every birthing person—regardless of their circumstances—has the opportunity to take control of their health and achieve better outcomes."

Babyscripts' collaboration with the March of Dimes and support of the MBAN SMBP Toolkit includes a webinar with the toolkit collaborators presented in February 2025 to discuss the contents and strategies of the toolkit: Vital Signs, Vital Moments: The Power of Self-Measured Blood Pressure Monitoring in Maternal Health; as well as a poster presentation at the AMCHP (Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs) Annual Conference on March 15-18 in Washington, DC.
