Overview
Diagnosis
- Diagnostic Criteria
- The diagnosis of preeclampsia is made when at least two of the following three diagnostic criteria are met:[1]
- 1.Blood pressure
- Systolic blood pressure of 140 mm Hg or more or diastolic blood pressure of 90 mm Hg or more on two occasions at least 4 hours apart after 20 weeks of gestation in a woman with a previously normal blood pressure
- Systolic blood pressure of 160 mm Hg or more or diastolic blood pressure of 110 mm Hg or more.
- 2. Proteinuria
- 300 mg or more per 24-hour urine collection or Protein/creatinine ratio of 0.3 mg/dL or more or Dipstick of 2+
- 3. Or in the absence of proteinuria, new-onset hypertension with the new onset of any of the following:
- Thrombocytopenia: Platelet count< 100,000/dl
- Renal insufficiency: Serum creatinine>1.1 mg/dL or a doubling of the serum creatinine concentration in the absence of other renal disease
- Impaired liver function: Elevated blood level of liver transaminases to a twice normal level
- Pulmonary edema
- Intractable headache or visual symptoms
Overview
History and Symptoms
- The previouse classification of preeclampsia into mild and severe disease is not used now because Preeclampsia may deteriorate rapidly without any specific signs and symptoms. [2]
- Preeclampsia may present the first time intrapartum or early postpartum.
- Every hypertensive pregnant woman should be investigated for the symptoms related to organ damage, even in the absence of proteinuria.
- Symptoms of preeclampsia may include the following:
