Incidence
Hypertensive disorders are among the most
significant & still now unresolving problem
complicating almost one in ten pregnancies
Responsible for 16% of Maternal Mortatlity in
developing countries
Commonest cause of iatrogenic prematurity
accounting 15% of all premature births & 20%
of very LBW births

HELLP Syndrome
This is an acronym for Hemolysis (H), Elevated Liver
enzymes (EL), and Low Platelet count (LP).
It is a rare multisystem disorder that complicates
pregnancy with lab evidences of micro-angiopathic
hemolysis, hepatic dysfunctioning &
thrombocytopenia.
It is a complication mostly associated with Pre-
eclampsia but can also be diagnosed (rarely though) in
the absence of these disorders.

Can we predict whether a pregnancy would be complicated with Hypertensive disorders?
Endothelial Dysfunction/Oxidant Stress

Renal Dysfuntion Misc
Placental Perfusion/ Vascular Resistance related Tests
Uterine Artery Doppler Velocimetry

Adapted from Conde-Agudelo and associates (2009)
Indirectly, YES…
![Page 65: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
How effective are they???
• is most promising, but currently, none of them is completely suitable for clinical use.
• As a result of these trials, some methods to prevent Preeclampsia have been theorized…
Uterine Artery Doppler Velocimetry (abnormal flow resistance/ diastolic notch in
2nd/ 3rd trimester)
![Page 66: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Trials of different preventive methods and their outcomes
Sibai et al. Lancet 365:785-99, 2005.
![Page 67: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
The efficacy of the preventive methods is questionable too…
The investigative procedures are cumbersome, time-consuming and expensive…
![Page 68: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
MANAGEMENT OF PREECLAMPSIA & PIHAfter early diagnosis, further
management depends on …
Severity of disease
Fetal maturity
Condition of cervix
![Page 69: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
What is EXPECTANT MANAGEMENT?
NO
YES
Neither forced nor restricted
![Page 70: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Treatment proper
![Page 71: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
For mild - controlled disease :
Thereafter induction may be done at term depending on cervical condition
Can be managed expectantly till term at home/hospital and continued till term.

![Page 72: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Hospitalisation???
• Gestational HTN : only if severe HTN
• Preeclampsia : If diastolic pressure≥ 100mm of Hg OR, there is proteinuria OR, there is fetal compromise.37 completed weeks of gestation.
![Page 73: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
When should we use antihypertensive to control the BP???
• Acute management of severe hypertension (BP > 160/110: to
prevent stroke)
which may require parenteral therapy.
![Page 74: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
What are the options???
Acute
Hydralazine inj.: now available
LabetalolInjection
Nifedipinecapsule/Tablet
Long term
Methyl Dopa250 mg Tab.
Labetalol Tablet 100 mg
Nifedipine5,10,20 mg
![Page 75: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
But wait…can antihypertensives be used in expectant management???
• In non-severe Pregnancy hypertension– No clear Evidence of benefit other than to reduce The
Frequency of Episodes of Severe hypertension
• May Adversely Effect Fetal Growth velocity
![Page 76: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
For severe-uncontrolled disease:
LUCS OR In case of very severe uncontrolled disease elective LUCSmay be done without induction
Preinduction
Cervical ripening with prostaglandin/osmotic dilators followed by induction
Termination is considered
76
If failed
![Page 77: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
For early onset severe preeclampsia:
• Controversy regarding termination in early onset disease
• But there is no beneficial role for mother, as well as perinatal mortality is also high instead of conservative management
• So…
77
termination is seriously considered
![Page 78: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)

DELIVERY CARE
• For any HDP, vaginal delivery should be considered unless a CS is required for the usual obstetric indications.
• Antihypertensives : continued throughout labour to maintain BP < 160/110 mmHg .
• 3rd Stage : actively managed with oxytocin 5 units IV or 10 units IM, particularly in the presence of thrombocytopenia or coagulopathy. (I-A)
• Ergometrine should NOT be given
![Page 80: Hypertensivedisordersinpregnancy 141205145016 Conversion Gate02](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051316/563dba83550346aa9aa64d27/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Management of Eclampsia :
Prompt delivery of fetus to achieve cure
Avoidance of diuretics & hyper osmotic agents
Limitation of I.V fluid
Intermittent antihypertensive to control BP judiciously
Control of convulsion by MgSO4 (IM/IV route)
Protection & supporting care during convulsionProtection in a railed cot
Protection of airway & prevention of tongue bite
Correction of hypoxia & acidosis
Managed in Eclampsia room.

to control convulsion
“It is the most effective drug to
control even recurrent seizures
without any central nervous
system depression to mother &
fetus”

Dosages
→Paralysing agent & Intubation
→Amobarbital 250mg I.V over 3 min
In case of uncontrolled recurrent seizure (10-15%) : →additional 2-4g of 20% solution IV @ <1g/min
→4gm of 20% solution IV slowly(@ <1g/min) + 10g of 50% solution deep IM in upper & outer quadrant of buttock by a wide bore needle then 5g
of 50% solution IM 4hrly similarly
IM regime (Pritchard protocol):1955
→4 gm loading in 100ml of IVF over 15-20 min followed by 2-3g/hr in 100 ml IVF as maintenance
I.V regime (Sibai protocol):1990
IM doses are as active as IV doses in controlling seizures

Some more about Magnesium• Duration : 24 hrs from last convulsion or from delivery which one is
longer.(This is called Magnesium sulphate prophylaxis in severe preeclampsia.)
• Features of toxicity:i> Impaired breathing(@8-10meq/L)ii>Arrythmia and Asystole ( @10-13 mEq/L)iii>Decreased/absent deep tendon reflex
(Hyporeflexia at 4 mEq/L, loss of patellar reflex at 7-10 mEq/L)iv> Shock (>13 mEq/L)
• For a maintenance dose following must be present -
Serum Mg level 4-7meq/l(twice daily)
Having Patellar reflex
Urine output >30ml/hr
RR>12/min

WHAT If magnesium toxicity is suspected???
Administration of 10mL of 10% calcium gluconate (1 g in total) as a slow intravenous push.
Serum magnesium level obtained.
Magnesium infusion should be discontinued, supplemental oxygen administered,
