Measure
Oral Nifedipine
Oral medication 10mg and 20mg Nifedipine: Nifedipine 10mg oral given and the MAP calculated 20 minutes after medication is given. If SBP is ≥160mmHg or DBP is ≥110mmHg, nifedipine 20mg oral given and the MAP calculated 20 minutes after medication is given. If SBP is ≥160mmHg or DBP is ≥110mmHg, nifedipine 20mg oral given and the MAP calculated 20 minutes after medication is given and institution specific protocol performed.
Intravenous Labetalol
Intravenous medication 20mg, 40mg, 80 mg Labetalol: Labetalol 20mg IV given over 2 minutes and the MAP calculated 10 minutes after medication is given. If SBP is ≥160mmHg or DBP is ≥110mmHg, labetalol 40mg IV given over 2 minutes and the MAP calculated 10 minutes after medication is given. If SBP is ≥160mmHg or DBP is ≥110mmHg, labetalol 80mg IV given over 2 minutes and the MAP calculated 10 minutes after medication is given. If SBP is ≥160mmHg or DBP is ≥110mmHg, then another medication chosen based on institution specific protocol.
