Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Terminology is inconsistent
  2. Edema not as significant below waist now.
  3. These categories develop during pregnancy. Multisystem syndrome.
  4. These two are related to preexisting conditions. Primary pathology is elevated B/P
  5. How often do office wait 6 hours before sending pt in to triage? Make sure accurate size b/p cuff is used
  6. Many theories as to the cause
  7. Placental role explains why delivery is the cure and why multiple gestation more prone to preeclampsia ie greater placental tissue.
  8. New screening test: protein/creatine ratio. Done with urine. If results are &lt;.16 then there will be &lt;300 mg protein in 24 hr urine
  9. many institutions have massive bld transfusion protocol so all these components are given vs just PRBCs
  10. Mack truck, with bolus, anti-emetic to prevent emesis
  11. Can not give with myasthenia gravis. Excreted by kidneys so be aware of renal function Magnesium continues until 24 hours after delivery
  12. B/P can be labile. Need to use consistent size cuff. Pt should be on side when b/p taken
  13. Preeclamptic nose – periorbital edema – spreads out nose
  14. Are there other kids at home? Does she have help in the house? Pt education about reasons to call the doctor.
  15. No visitation from kids, financial difficulties, child care issues, loss of control
