Real-Time Blood Pressure Recording Using Radiotelemetry in a Rat Model of Preeclampsia
2018
Radiotelemetry is increasingly being recognized not just as the gold standard but a necessity for validation of gestational hypertension seen in preeclampsia. Here we describe radiotelemetry probe implantation into the descending aorta of Sprague-Dawley rats to allow real-time blood pressure recording over the entire gestational period. This is a valuable tool to be able to track changes in maternal blood pressure throughout gestation and the efficacy of novel therapeutic agents in controlling hypertension.
