Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are among the most serious conditions that pregnancy care providers face; however, little attention has been paid to the concept of tailoring clinical care to reduce associated adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes based on the underlying disease pathogenesis. This narrative review discusses the integration of phenotype-based clinical strategies in the management of high-risk pregnant patients that are currently not common clinical practice: real-time placental growth factor testing at Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto and noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring to guide antihypertensive therapy at the University of Washington Medical Center, Seattle. Future work should focus on promoting more widespread integration of these novel strategies into obstetric care to improve outcomes of pregnancies at high risk of adverse maternal-fetal outcomes from these complications of pregnancy.
