Treatment of PIH
1. Only cure is delivery of baby 2. Monitor PT, PTT, platelet, FSP 3. Hydralazine and methyldopa to control HTN. Labetalol is drug of first choice 4. Esmolol should be avoided due to adverse fetal effects. M 5. High dose of nitroprusside =\> (S/E cyanide toxicity) WHY ?? 6. Seizures require mag sulf and benzo 7. Mag Sulf to prevent convulsion (Mag sulf antagonizes calcium) 8. Magnesium depresses CNS by decreasing Acetylcholine release 9. Mechanism of action of magnesium - Prevents Ca++ entry into cell=\> smooth muscle relaxation Required level of magnesium = 4-6 mEq/L

Magnesium toxicity
−Absent deep tendon reflexes −Ventilatory failure ( requires prompt intubation and ventilation) −Heart block (Prolong PQ, wide QRS), cardiac arrest −Hypotension −Drowsiness and hypoventilation in fetus −Atonic uterus

Treatment of magnesium toxicity
−D/C magnesium −Intubation and ventilation −IV calcium gluconate ( calcium antagonizes effects of magnesium)

Complications of PIH
1. Pulmonary edema/ cerebral hemorrhages (leading causes of maternal death) 2. DIC 3. Prematurity 4. Prematurity/fetal distress 5. Intrauterine growth retardation 6. Placental abruption 7. ARF, cerebral edema 8. Fetal/maternal death ; leading cause

Anesthesia complications of PIH
Avoid katamine as it causes HTN

Compare and contrast management of preclampsis and Eclampsia
**_Management of Preeclampsia_** 1. If term or fetal lung mature; deliver 2. If severe; expedite delivery by induction or C/S 3. Bed rest, monitor BP, reflexes, weight and proteinuria 4. Control BP ; **diastolic \< 90-100** 5. Seizure prophylaxis by mag sulf **_Management of Eclampsia_** 1. Supplemental O2 2. Mag sulf + benzo 3. Monitor fetal status 4. Initiate steps to delivery
