Overview

Maternal monitoring in preeclampsia should include BP monitoring, repeated assessments for proteinuria if it is not already present, clinical assessment including clonus, and a minimum of twice weekly blood tests for hemoglobin, platelet count, and tests of liver and renal function, including uric acid, the latter being associated with worse maternal and fetal outcomes.
