Preeclampsia was associated with increased thoracic-fluid conductivity stratified between mild and severe disease. Thoracic-fluid conductivity of at least 65 kohm(-1) was strongly associated with peripartum pulmonary edema. Women with values above 65 kohm(-1) might be candidates for medical intervention even without overt clinical symptoms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
