Elevated circulating thrombomodulin in severe preeclampsia

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1993
A relationship between serum thrombomodulin and preeclampsia was investigated. In women with severely preeclamptic pregnancies, serum thrombomodulin levels were found to be significantly elevated as compared with those of matched control subjects (p < 0.005). Serum thrombomodulin levels correlated positively with serum creatinine (r = 0.854, p < 0.0001)

The incidence of preeclampsia in a consecutive series of 642 twin pregnancies was 25.9% compared with 9.7% in singleton pregnancies (p less than 0.001); in primiparas it was 35.2% and in multiparas 20.4% (p less than 0.001). Preeclampsia in twin pregnancies was more commonly of early onset (p less than 0.001) and the maternal disease more severe as ...

Urinary Sediment Changes in Severe Preeclampsia

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1991
We analyzed the urinary sediment of 30 patients with severe preeclampsia every 4 hours during early labor, delivery, and the postpartum period. Fifteen normal control patients were also followed in a similar fashion. No casts were noticed in the urine samples of the control group. However, the urinary sediment of preeclamptic patients revealed the same

Anesthesia for Severe Preeclampsia

1995
Preeclampsia is a syndrome of hypertension, proteinuria, and generalized edema occurring after the 20th week of gestation and usually abating within 48 hours of delivery. Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) is the term used when proteinuria and/or edema are not present. However, the two terms are often used interchangeably.

Captopril in severe preeclampsia.

Journal of the National Medical Association, 1991
Captopril is an inhibitor of angiotensin I converting enzyme and is used for treating intractable chronic hypertension. However, the use of captopril during pregnancy is limited because of reported fetal and neonatal side effects. This study explored the efficacy of sublingual captopril in postpartum management of severe preeclampsia.
