Patient Questions, Answered
Connura will store your blood pressure readings and pregnancy information on your device, and nothing will be shared with anyone unless you choose to share it with a PDF report.
When you use Connura to generate a report for your care team, you decide who sees it and when.
Connura does not sell or share your data with advertisers.
Your health information belongs to you.
There's no charge for the Connura app during this introductory period.
You don't need any special equipment.
Connura will work with any validated upper-arm monitor — you'll enter your readings manually in the app.
Wrist monitors are less accurate during pregnancy, so an upper-arm monitor is recommended. If you're not sure which one to get, your care team can suggest one.

Talk with your care team about when home monitoring makes sense for you.
Some women may start using Connura after a provider notices elevated readings at an appointment. Others may begin earlier as a routine part of their pregnancy care.
If your provider has asked you to track your blood pressure at home, Connura launches late 2026. Join the waitlist to be among the first to try it.
Your care team will tell you how often to check based on your situation.
Some women check once a day, others twice. Connura will let you set reminders for whatever schedule your provider recommends and view your readings over time, so you see the trend as well as individual numbers.
If you're not sure what's right for you, ask your care team at your next appointment.
Connura will let you generate a PDF report of your readings that you can share with your care team — by email, through your patient portal, or printed out for your next visit.
This means you arrive at appointments with organized data instead of trying to remember numbers.
Your provider won't automatically see your Connura readings unless you share the report, so you're always in control of your information.
Connura is not a diagnostic tool — it doesn't diagnose conditions or replace your provider's judgment.
What Connura will do is show a status label for each reading, based on the thresholds you've set with your care team. If a reading is flagged, Connura will point you back to the plan you agreed with your care team and offer a recheck.
Whatever the app shows, a reading at or above 160/110, or a headache that won't go away, vision changes, or pain under your ribs — call your care team that day.
Think of Connura as a way to keep your readings and your care team's plan in one place — so you can have better, more informed conversations with your provider.
Most blood pressure apps are built for the general population.
They use thresholds like 130/80 that don't account for how pregnancy changes your body.
Connura is being built specifically for pregnancy and postpartum. You'll enter the thresholds your care team sets, and until you do, Connura will use ACOG's definitions as defaults. It will keep tracking with you after your baby is born — because monitoring doesn't stop when delivery does. And it will let you generate PDF reports to share with your care team.
Yes. Blood pressure complications can develop in the weeks after delivery, not just during pregnancy. Connura will keep tracking with you after your baby is born.
Your care team may adjust your targets after birth, and you'll be able to update them in Connura whenever they change.
You'll be able to share your Connura PDF report with anyone you choose — your partner, a family member, a doula, or your care team.
Connura will put you in control of who sees your data and when. Some women may find it helpful to share their report with a support person who can help watch for patterns or remember to follow up.
Connura was designed on clinical guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG).
It is designed to support — not replace — the care your provider gives you.
Many providers appreciate when patients arrive with organized blood pressure data, because it leads to more productive conversations. Once you're using Connura, ask your care team for the thresholds to enter, and bring your report to appointments.
Connura will still help you track your readings. Until you have thresholds from a care team, Connura will use ACOG's definitions as defaults.
If you're looking for prenatal care, your local health department or community health center can help connect you. In the meantime, Connura will give you an organized record of your readings to bring to your first appointment — something that helps any new provider understand your situation quickly.
If you ever see a reading of 160/110 or higher, or have symptoms like severe headache or vision changes, go to your nearest emergency room.
You don't need an established provider for urgent care.
