Core Tip A multidisciplinary approach in integrating mental health professionals and routine strategic care is essential for high-risk patients. Blood pressure variability (BPV) should be continuously monitored as fluctuations contribute to vascular dysfunction and worsening mental health outcomes. Additionally, excessive gestational weight gain alone does not significantly increase the risk of postpartum depression (PPD). Pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) is a more crucial factor. Therefore, BPV and pre-pregnancy BMI are the two most critical predictors of PPD in pre-eclamptic women.
