For Immediate Release – 09-14- 2024
Denouncing bigotry against the Haitian community in Ohio.
The Haitian Medical Association Abroad, in one voice with all Haitian professional organizations, strongly condemns the xenophobic statements made regarding the Haitian community in
Springfield, Ohio. The local authorities and all

made regarding the Haitian community in
Springfield, Ohio. The local authorities and all reliable news agencies have proven those statements false.
We reject the putrid mentality of racism in all its forms: discrimination, untruthfulness, and all sorts of derogatory statements aimed at division and hate. We believe that all men and women are equal in mind and body and have the same rights under the law; moreover, they are subjected to the same opportunities our nation offers.
We stand against all those engaged in these sorts of perfidious plans aimed at promoting hatred and division among us. We do not promote, nor do we support, vulgarity, rhetorical hatefulness, and destructive actions toward any group or persons, people, or nations, regardless of race, color, s*x, religion, or economic status.
We credit leadership that utilizes constructive analysis and planning with practical actions aimed at viable solutions-oriented endeavors aimed at the betterment of our communities, cities, and nations of all people.
Let us remember the glorious past of this small nation, Haiti, which in 1804 dared to declare independence and affirm that all enslaved men and women were created equal. They fought for this ideal, defeating the Bonaparte army against all odds and conceiving the first independent black republic. Haiti's history encompasses such glorious contributions as accompanying the American liberation army in 1779 in Savannah, Georgia, to fight for American independence.
The story of Haitians coming to the US is no different from that of all other immigrants who contributed to strengthening the fabric of this great nation. Haitians are proud, hardworking, law-abiding, and tax-paying individuals. They have excelled in all professional fields: politics, education, science, sports, and the arts. They are great contributors to American society. Their dream is to achieve a better life for their children; their story is part of the great American experiment! They, too, embrace and believe in “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
The Haitian Americans and the Haitians of American ancestry are a united constituency of more than 800,000. Together with the AMHE, they support the rights of their communities and respect those of all members of the American society.

President, AMHE New York Chapter

Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are a leading cause of maternal mortality and can put both mother and baby at risk for problems during pregnancy. High blood pressure can also cause problems during and after delivery. Importantly, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are often preventable and treatable. In the U.S., high blood pressure is noted in one in every 12 to 17 pregnancies among women aged 20 to 44.2 Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy have become more common, affecting approximately 15% of women during their reproductive years, in part as a result of advanced age at first pregnancy, as well as increasing prevalence of obesity and other cardiometabolic risk factors.1,3 There are racial/ethnic disparities in both the burden and outcomes of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy

Chronic hypertension is high blood pressure present before pregnancy or diagnosed before 20 weeks of pregnancy. Women who have chronic hypertension can also develop preeclampsia

Gestational hypertension is high blood pressure that develops at or after 20 weeks of pregnancy without evidence of protein in the urine or other heart or kidney problems. Gestational hypertension usually improves after delivery. However, some women with gestational hypertension have a higher risk of developing chronic hypertension in the future.

Preeclampsia occurs when a woman with previously normal blood pressure suddenly develops high blood pressure and protein in the urine or other problems (e.g., low platelet count, impaired liver function) after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Women who have chronic hypertension can also develop preeclampsia. Preeclampsia occurs in about 1 in 25 pregnancies in the U.S.

Some women with preeclampsia can develop seizures. This is called eclampsia, which is a medical emergency. Hemolysis Elevated Liver Enzymes and Low Platelet Count (HELLP) Syndrome HELLP syndrome is life-threatening condition that can occur during pregnancy or soon after delivery. It can cause high blood pressure and seizures, and can lead to a potentially fatal liver disorder or stroke if left untreated.

Prevention of Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy
Lifestyle and behavioral interventions, including optimal maternal weight gain and diet, can improve pregnancy outcomes. Exercise may reduce gestational hypertension and preeclampsia risk by 30% to 40%. Low-dose aspirin started between 12 to 16 weeks of pregnancy can reduce the risk of preeclampsia and related adverse outcomes by 10% to 20% in women at increased risk. Accurate blood pressure measurement is important for diagnosing, classifying, and treating hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Several self-measured blood pressure devices are accurate in pregnant women, including those with gestational hypertension and preeclampsia.4

Treatment
Additional evidence is needed to better define optimal treatment targets and the threshold for pharmacotherapy for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Antihypertensive therapy in the setting of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy should focus on the use of safe and effective medications specific to this population. Treatment of hypertension, prevention of seizures, and timed delivery are currently the primary approaches for women with preeclampsia.

Importance of Longitudinal Care
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy can lead to complications during and after delivery as well as life-long risk and early onset of CVD. Therefore, postpartum assessment and control of cardiovascular risk factors is essential in those with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. A team-based approach and multi-specialty collaboration is needed to ensure appropriate care transition with the goal of optimizing cardiovascular preventive strategies across the life course.
