[Our and foreign experience in diagnosis and treatment of preeclampsia]
Aim:
Our aim was to evaluate our experience in diagnosis and treatment of preeclampsia in the clinic of Pathological pregnancy--Varna Medical University. We compared our results with the results of prominent western clinics.
Material And Methods:
We evaluated 140 patients with preeclampsia for the period of 2010 to 2013. A special file was fulfilled. It included: age, parity, gestational age, value of arterial blood pressure, urea, creatinine, common protein in blood, duration of treatment, oedema, urine protein.
Results:
The mean age of the patients was 30 years. The urea and creatinine were normal. The mean hospital stay was 5,71 days. The blood protein was 61 g/l, only 4.17% of the patients were with protein lower than 58 g/l. In 87.5% of the patients the systolic blood pressure was between 135 and 160 mmHg, in 12.5% the systolic blood pressure was over 160mm Hg. In 58.34% there was a proteinuria. The mean gestational age was 33 gestational weeks. The delivery was performed in the most suitable for the preeclampsia gestational age.
Conclusions:
According to our research work the patients with preeclampsia have a very high risk for cardio-vessel diseases and again of preeclampsia in their future pregnancies from 30%-40%. High prenatal care can prevent most of the complications connected with this disease.
