Introduction Hypertension is the commonest medical complication of pregnancy. It is associated with high maternal and perinatal mortality, especially when severe. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy constitute one of the five major causes of maternal morbidity and mortality in obstetric practice,
INTRODUCTION Despite advances in care, preeclampsia remains a leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide and its syndromic nature makes diagnosis and management difficult.1 Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-specific syndrome, defined by new onset hypertension and
Fluid resuscitation is a key determinant in the management of these parturients. Hypovolemia exacerbates organ failure, whereas volume overload results in pulmonary edema. In this setting, the use of noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring is associated with reduced mortality.

Pheochromocytoma (pheo) is a catecholamine secreting tumor arising from chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla in 90% of cases & in 10% is extra-adrenal arising from the sympathetic chain. It is malignant in 10% of cases, bilateral in 10% of patients & 10% of all pheo are inherited (Familial Pheo)
This will be a randomized, controlled trial of 300 women with a diagnosis of preeclampsia at any point in their current pregnancy or immediately postpartum. Immediately postpartum is defined as preeclampsia diagnosed after delivery but prior to discharge from the hospital. The diagnosis of
- Preeclampsia (PE) is a diverse multisystem syndrome defined as a new onset of hypertension along with evidence of significant multiorgan dysfunction in previously normotensive women 20 weeks of gestation (1)
- The incidence of PE is around 2 - 8 % of pregnancies and it causes about 50,000 deaths
Preeclampsia is a multisystem disorder that complicates 3-5% of pregnancies and remains a major cause of maternal, fetal, and neonatal morbidity and mortality.(1)
Preeclampsia is characterized by the development of new onset hypertension (HTN) and the establishment of proteinuria. Other signs and
INTRODUCTION Background Mechanical ventilation (MV) is one of the most important risk factors for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in the preterm infant, due to the early pulmonary inflammation from volume- and baro-trauma and the secondary 1. Despite this, around 80% of infants
Background of the Project including Preliminary Observations Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, including preeclampsia, complicate up to 10% of pregnancies worldwide, constituting one of the greatest causes of fetal growth restriction, preterm birth, low birth weight, perinatal mortality, and
Scientific background:
Preeclampsia is an idiopathic maternal, multi organ, specific pregnancy disorder, associated with significant maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Preeclampsia complicates approximately 2-8% of all pregnancies. The disorder is characterized by new-onset of
Risk of fluid over-resuscitation is high in preeclampsia due to endothelial dysfunction and resulting increased vascular permeability. The Confidential Enquiry into Maternal Deaths in the UK reported six maternal deaths between 1994 and 1996 due to adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) that
An observational study in which the patients for the study are selected from antenatal clinic, antenatal ward and "preeclampsia and eclampsia room" in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and general Ophthalmic Out Patient Department(OPD) in case of ambulatory patients during the period of
I. Introduction / Specific Aims Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal mortality (15-20 % in developed countries) and acute and long-term morbidity for the mother and newborn. It is a multi-system disorder characterised by abnormal vascular response to placentation, associated with increased
Although the source of CA-125 during pregnancy is the fetal chorion, amniotic fluid, and maternal decidua, the perinatal dynamics of maternal serum CA-125 requires clarification. Clinical studies of CA-125 levels and its function in hypertensive pregnant patients are limited and offered
Background and Significance
Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) is a clinical-radiological syndrome. It was first described by Hinchey et al. in 1996. It is characterized by a variable combination of headaches, seizures, altered mental status, visual impairment, nausea, vomiting and
