Funded Activity Summary

Our study aims to compare signs of sleep-disordered breathing (such as snoring and breathing pauses) in pregnant women affected by hypertension or preeclampsia to those with a healthy pregnancy, and to see if they respond differently to the breathing problems. To do this we will examine whether snoring and breathing pauses during sleep have an impact on the pregnant woman’s blood pressure and the unborn baby’s heart rate overnight, and scans will monitor whether the baby’s growth is affected.
