Does the prevalence of chronic hypertension, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, and eclampsia vary across the US by state? In this cross-sectional study of 3 659 553 women who had live births in the US in 2017, the median odds of eclampsia were 2.4-fold higher if the same woman delivered in a state with a higher vs lower prevalence of eclampsia. The median odds ratios were substantially lower for chronic hypertension and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. The findings of this study suggest that substantial variation among states exists in the prevalence of eclampsia across the US, despite controlling for multiple patient characteristics. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are important causes of maternal and perinatal morbidity in the US. However, the extent of statewide variation in the prevalence of chronic hypertension, pregnancy-induced hypertension or preeclampsia, and eclampsia in the US remains unknown. To examine the extent of statewide variation in the prevalence of chronic hypertension, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (including pregnancy-induced hypertension or preeclampsia), and eclampsia in the US. A cross-sectional study using 2017 US birth certificate data was conducted from September 1, 2019, to February 1, 2020. A population-based sample of 3 659 553 women with a live birth delivery was included. State-specific prevalence of chronic hypertension, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, and eclampsia was assessed using multilevel multivariable logistic regression, with the median odds ratio (MOR) to evaluate statewide variation. Of the 3 659 553 women, 185 932 women (5.1%) were younger than 20 years, 727 573 women (19.9%) were aged between 20 and 24 years, 1 069 647 women (29.2%) were aged between 25 and 29 years, 1 037 307 women (28.3%) were aged between 30 and 34 years, 523 607 women (14.3%) were aged between 35 and 39 years, and 115 487 women (3.2%) were 40 years or older. Most women had Medicaid (42.8%) or private insurance (49.4%). Hawaii had the lowest adjusted prevalence of chronic hypertension (1.0%; 95% CI, 0.9%-1.2%), and Alaska had the highest (3.4%; 95% CI, 3.0%-3.9%). Massachusetts had the lowest adjusted prevalence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (4.3%; 95% CI, 4.1%-4.6%), and Louisiana had the highest (9.3%; 95% CI, 8.9%-9.8%). Delaware had the lowest adjusted prevalence of eclampsia (0.03%; 95% CI, 0.01%-0.09%), and Hawaii had the highest (2.8%; 95% CI, 2.2%-3.4%). The degree of statewide variation was high for eclampsia (MOR, 2.36; 95% CI, 1.88-2.82), indicating that the median odds of eclampsia were 2.4-fold higher if the same woman delivered in a US state with a higher vs lower prevalence of eclampsia. Modest variation between states was observed for chronic hypertension (MOR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.20-1.33) and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (MOR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.13-1.21). The findings of this study suggest that after accounting for patient-level and state-level variables, substantial state-level variation exists in the prevalence of eclampsia. These data can inform future public-health inquiries to identify reasons for the eclampsia variability. This cross-sectional study examines statewide variations in the prevalence of hypertensive disorders in pregnant women across the US.
