PRE-ECLAMPSIA
Pre-eclampsia occurs during the final stages of pregnancy (the trimester), which is associated with high blood pressure or protein trapped in the urine. Symptoms of this condition includes fluids in the lungs that make it difficult to breathe (SERIOUS), kidney complications, impaired liver function, swelling, and visual difficulties. Mature age, having twins, being pregnant for the first time, and diabetes are risk factors in developing pre-eclampsia. While pre-eclampsia usually take during pregnancy, it may occur right after delivery, but that incidence is quite rare. PE may cause pregnant women to suffer from heart diseases later on in life. PE is one of the most common hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Being bedridden and salt consumption is not effective in helping PE pregnant women.
Unfortunately, 2 to 8 percent of pregnant women have pre-eclampsia throughout the world. It was reported that 29,000 pregnant women sadly died, which is down from the 37,000 deaths in 1990, so that is some good news. People may get pre-eclampsia confused with eclampsia, which is a life threatening condition associated with seizures that can become fatal. While pre-eclampsia is a serious condition, it is not as serious as eclampsia. However, if left untreated, pre-eclampsia can developed into eclampsia.
