Re: Severe PIH 34 weeksFrom: rmodugno@aol.comWed May 23 20:25:39 2007
Steve, you say deliver when something is wrong. Is a BP of 170/110 right? She has "Gestational Hypertension?" - is that your contention? Why do ten percent of eclamptics not have proteinuria? Are they not pre-eclamptics before they seize? Do you have to have proteinuria and/or HeLLP to label a P0G1 with a BP170/110 a severe pre-eclamptic? IMHO, no. OK, let's wait for the end organ damage -seizure, abruption. Call me a whimp - but not on my watch! GIT R DUN!

How old is she? Without abnormality of bloods or urine how can you call this pre-eclampsia? Seems likely that she has essential hypertension. Give her Labetalol until the BP is controlled and watch for end-organ changes including placental function. Deliver when something is wrong, which it isn’t yet.

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.
