Abstract

Objective: To assess the Feto-Maternal outcome in subjects of Eclampsia. Method: This prospective descriptive study (case series) was carried out in department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Govt. Medical College, New Civil Hospital Surat, enrolling 61 subjects with Eclampsia admitted in Labour Room at New Civil Hospital, Surat over a period of two years from August 2010 to July-2012 & followed till discharge. Summary: This study was conducted at New Civil Hospital, Surat enrolling subjects admitted with Eclampsia (n=61). The incidence of Eclampsia amongst our labour room admissions was 1.2%. All patient were given inj. Mgso4 for control of convulsions, and Adverse maternal outcome was noted in 33.4% subjects, Abruptio Placenta was the commonest complication noted in 13.1% subjects and maternal mortality in 2.4% subjects. Adverse Fetal outcome was seen in 67.2% subjects – prematurity accounting for 92.7% of the adverse Fetaloutcomes. Conclusion: Maternal mortality and morbidity increases in subjects with eclampsia. So it is important for clinicians to educate women about the early warning sign of Pre-eclampsiaand to identify women with severe PET to prevent Eclampsia. MgSO4 is very effective to prevent convulsion in severe PET and to treat Eclampsia.
