Opis

Hypertensive disorders with pregnancy are considered one of the commonest causes of maternal and perinatal morbidity worldwide. It also results in foetal growth retardation, premature delivery and perinatal asphyxia and increases maternal risk for abruptio placenta, convulsions, intra cerebral haemorrhage, hepatic and renal failure. Patients with mild preeclampsia are admitted to the hospital and placed to bed rest for the duration of pregnancy in addition to the use of hypotensive agents, which leads to pancreatitis and intestinal ileus. And there is still some doubt about the use of the anti hypertensive drugs during pregnancy as they may adversely affect the foetal wellbeing.
