Expectant management of early-onset severe preeclampsia. Literature review and treatment protocol
Abstract
The main goal of expectant management in women with severe preeclampsia (PE) remote from term is to improve neonatal outcome, without compromising maternal health. Studies suggest that expectant management in early-onset preeclampsia may be associated with decreased neonatal morbidity, but also conclude that further studies are needed to assess maternal safety. The aim of this review is to assess the current issue evidence regarding the management of severe preeclampsia remote from term.Downloads
