Abstract
![CDATA[Blood pressure (BP) elevation after experimental reduction in uteroplacental blood flow in primates is associated with proteinuria and has been a surrogate for studying placental dysfunction manifesting as preeclampsia in humans. Controlling BP is the mainstay of treatment but the effect of antihypertensive treatment on the acute BP response is poorly understood in this animal model. We examined the effect of three oral antihypertensive agents in the treatment of BP in an experimental setting to determine the BP response.]]
