Does the work incorporate equity?

This work addresses equity because it is known that pregnant and postpartum patients of racial and ethnic minorities have higher rates of preeclampsia and other hypertensive morbidities of pregnancy. The Cuff Kit Program focuses on administration of blood pressure cuffs and information to all patients, prioritizing administration to patients of racial and ethnic minorities and those at higher risk.

Does this work address any of the UChicago Medicine quality priorities as listed on the Clinical Excellence Scorecard?
