About this study

Official title: Risk Analysis of Intensive Care Management on Maternal and Fetal Outcome of Severe Preeclampsia and Eclampsia

Laboratory monitoring of patients included serial measurement of complete blood cell count, liver function tests, coagulation profile, and renal function tests.

ICU management during conduction of the research study included the following:

Control of convulsions using magensium sulphate. Control of blood pressure Diastolic blood pressure above 110 mmHg, nifedipine was administered.A plasma volume expansion with saline was used in all women to maintain sufficient intravascular volume. Delivery was performed immediately after hemodynamic stabilization and clinical control of general condition .

Read the detailed description

Laboratory monitoring of patients included serial measurement of complete blood cell count, liver function tests, coagulation profile, and renal function tests.

ICU management included the following:

Control of convulsions by Loading dose of magensium sulphate (4-6g I.V), given over 20 minutes in 100 ml of dextrose then Maintenance dose (4-6g) magensium sulphate in 500 cc dextrose given over 8 hours using continuous IV drip.Control of blood pressure if Diastolic blood pressure above 110 mmHg, nifedipine was administered. Delivery was performed immediately after hemodynamic stabilization and clinical control of general condition .Termination of gestation decision was based on the the presence of maternal complications, fetal distress.After delivery the patient is retrurned to ICU under clinical and careful observation of the following:Heart rate, blood pressure,every 15 min,Temperature and respiratory rate ,evey 4 hours. Duration of admission in the ICU was assessed

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertensive Disorder of Pregnancy, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

control of blood pressure (time frame: 24 hours after delivery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jan 2018.
