Assessment of Neonatal Outcomes in Eclamptic Mothers Admitted to Nmch, Patna, Bihar

Abstract

Hypertension during pregnancy is a highly variable disorder unique to pregnancy and a leading cause of maternal and fetal/neonatal morbidity and mortality. Pregnancy-induced hypertension is the general classification for hypertension diseases during pregnancy, which include pregnancy-induced hypertension usually after 20th week of gestation (without proteinuria), pre-eclampsia (with proteinuria), and eclampsia (pre-eclampsia with convulsions). This disease is responsible for high maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality rates, and is one of the main public health problems. Hence based on above findings the present study was planned for Assessment of Neonatal Outcomes in Eclamptic Mothers Admitted to NMCH, Patna, Bihar.
 The present study was planned in Department of Pediatrics, Nalanda Medical College and Hospital, Patna, Bihar, India. The study was planned from March 2019 to October 2019. In the present study 50 females admitted with eclampsia or with pre-eclampsia but subsequently developing eclampsia were enrolled. Also the control females were also evaluated for comparative evaluation.
 The data generated from the present study concludes that Prevention of prematurity, treatment of morbidities & prevention of infection among infants should be done to reduce the PMR and improve perinatal outcome. Thus High risk pregnancy should be identified prospectively and then given special care, perhaps a major impact on overall perinatal loss could be reduced.
