- W2321272021 abstract "ABSTRACT Need Despite availability of intensive care units and improved antenatal care some women still die from eclampsia. Eclampsia is associated with increased risk of maternal death from 1.8% in developing countries to 14% in developing countries. Cerebral complications are the major cause of death in eclampsia patients. Eclampsia along with hypercoagulopathy of pregnancy is a high risk patient for development of cerebrovascular thrombosis/ischemic strokes. Eclampsia patients who are refractory to the routine treatment have been found to have various CNS pathological conditions amenable to the medical treatment. Aim and objectives To study the neurological changes in patients with eclampsia and to delineate the pathophysiology in patients with refractory eclampsia. Materials and methods Prospective study design where 30 patients were included in the study. All patients were admitted in the eclampsia room with h/o convulsions. All patients were put on MgSO 4 therapy and antihypertensives. The patients who are refractory to the treatment, such as having recurrent convulsions despite on MgSO 4 were selected for neuroimaging with CT scan. neuroimaging is done with Phillips Tomoscan CT scanner where slices of 10 mm thickness were taken through the entire brain in the transaxial plane. Abdomen shielding is done with lead shield to prevent radiation hazard. Results Sr. Findings Number of patients Percentage 1 Cerebral edema 20 Mild to moderate 17 56 Severe 3 10 2 Hypertensive encephalopathy 5 16 3 Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome 11 36 4 Cerebral infarction 4 13 5 Cortical venous sinus thrombosis 2 16 6 Tuberculomas 2 6 7 Meningitis 1 3 8 Hydrocephalus 1 3 9 Normal 4 13 Conclusion Eclampsia patients who were refactory to the treatment with MgSO 4 and antihypertensives have been found to have very significant and morbid CNS pathological conditions. Neuroimaging in this patients have done a pivotal role in identifying the abnormality and rectifying it with medical means which has surely improved patients condition and have reduced morbidity.
