Abstract:
Automated measurement of blood pressure and urinalysis is reviewed, and the strengths and weaknesses of these devices are compared with conventional techniques. The few early reports of such management strategies are reviewed with emphasis on the advantages of automated monitoring. The article concludes with a review of published pilot data in this field and places those findings in the context of recent recommendations for the development of obstetric care in the United Kingdom.
