This presentation of the severe PE originates from an abnormal placental development, which progresses with the production of factors that lead to endothelial injury through the activation of platelets and/or vasoconstrictor agents 4 .

“…The severe PE is defined by SAP ≥ 160 mmHg and/or DAP ≥ 110 mmHg, and it can be followed by proteinuria ≥ 5 g/day, oliguria (< 500 mL/day), elevated serum creatinine, fetal growth restriction, pulmonary edema, neurologic manifestations (headache, visual disturbances, seizure or stroke), hepatic manifestations or HELLP syndrome (Hemolysis Elevated Liver enzymes Low Platelets), condition described by Louis Weinstein in 1982 3 . The HELLP syndrome consists of an advanced staged of PE 3,4 and it can affect 0,6% of gestations and 4-12% of patients with severe PE, developing high maternal (24%) and perinatal (up to 40%) mortality rates 5,6 . It presents clinically with unspecific symptoms, such as general malaise, epigastralgia, right hypochondrium pain, nausea and vomits, headache and scotomas.…”

“…It is characterized by hemolysis, thrombocytopenia and elevation of liver enzymes and can affect approximately 4-12% of cases of severe preeclampsia, with a high maternal and perinatal mortality of 24% and 40% respectively. 6 In this context, hypertensive syndromes are among the main causes of maternal death, and the reduction of maternal mortality by 75%, by the year 2015, was one of the objectives established in the Millennium Development Goals, which has not materialized in several countries, among them, Brazil. 4 Pre-eclampsia is considered a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality, complicating about 5-7% of pregnancies worldwide, with an increased risk of eclampsia, pulmonary edema, stroke, renal and hepatic dysfunction, and death, in the absence of interventions.…”

“…7,8 In Brazil, it reaches incidence levels of 7.5%. 6 In addition, the highest number of cases of maternal near miss, occur in hypertensive syndromes, as documented in a study conducted in an intensive care unit (ICU) of Recife-PE hospital, which presented a rate of 62.7%, 42.3% of severe preeclampsia, 13.7% of eclampsia, 6.7% of chronic hypertension aggravated during pregnancy and 41.2% of HELLP syndrome. 9 In addition to maternal complications, adverse events to the fetus, such as prematurity, fetal anomalies, decreased intrauterine growth, intrauterine fetal death and small gestational age (SGA) are described as being associated with pre-eclamptic conditions.…”
