First of all she does not have preeclampsia neither mild nor severe. She has no significant proteinuria. She does have severe hypertension. This may PIH or underlying hypertensiion exacerbated by pregnancy. As I said the pts. labs are all normal. The babies studies are all normal other than the fact that the babies amnio shows immaturity and the baby is LGA at 34 weeks. It is easy to say deliver her by section or whatever but where is the thought process??? Why is this baby better off in the NICU than in the mother hospitalized and under observation? Hey, I'm ready to do rock-paper-scissors or something about the preeclampsia v. HBP thing. I think it's only a matter of time before her PLTs drop, her liver rots and her proteinuria increases. What say you? Joe P.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
