“…L'éclampsie survient dans la majorité des cas en pré-partum, mais également en per-ou post-partum [2][3][4][5]. C'est une pathologie obstétricale devenue rare dans les pays industrialisés [6][7][8], son incidence ayant diminué de plus de 90 % au cours du vingtième siècle, accompagnée d'une chute du taux de mortalité associée [7,9].…”

“…It is important to continue studying hypertension during the postpartum period since most patients with postpartum preeclampsia/ eclampsia often present to the emergency department without any history of hypertension during pregnancy or classic features of the disease [14]. Women presenting with postpartum preeclampsia are at increased risk for eclampsia, pulmonary edema, stroke, and thromboembolism [9]. Therefore, it is important to fully elucidate new-onset postpartum preeclampsia in order to better identify those at increased risk of developing this unexpected condition [1425].…”

“…As a matter of fact, approximately 50% of the cases of eclampsia develop after delivery [8], with roughly 26% of seizures developing more than 48 hours after birth [4], accounting for almost 15% of maternal deaths in the United States [4]. Despite the high incidence of eclampsia, pulmonary edema, stroke and thromboembolism [9], less attention has been given to postpartum preeclampsia [10] as there is paucity of data regarding incidence, risk factors, optimal treatment, and outcomes of hypertensive disorders diagnosed in the postpartum period [10]. …”

ObjectiveNew-onset postpartum preeclampsia is a poorly defined condition that accounts for a significant percentage of eclampsia cases. It is unclear whether new-onset postpartum preeclampsia is a different disorder from or belongs to the same spectrum of classic antepartum preeclampsia. The objective of this study was to compare the clinical presentation and pregnancy outcomes of antepartum preeclampsia and new-onset postpartum preeclampsia.MethodsA retrospective study including 92 patients with antepartum preeclampsia and 92 patients with new-onset postpartum preeclampsia was performed. Clinical presentation and pregnancy outcomes were compared. Chi-square test was used to analyze categorical variables, and independent t-test and Mann-Whitney U-test for numerical variables. P-values of <0.05 were used to indicate statistical signifi cance.ResultsPatients with antepartum preeclampsia and new-onset postpartum preeclampsia differ significantly in profile, symptoms at presentation, laboratory markers and pregnancy outcomes.ConclusionNew-onset postpartum preeclampsia has a distinct patient profile and clinical presentation than antepartum preeclampsia, suggesting they may represent different disorders. Characterization of a patient profile with increased risk of developing this condition will help clinicians to identify patients at risk and provide early and targeted interventions to decrease the morbidity associated with this condition.

“…Los trastornos hipertensivos durante el anteparto y el posparto son fisiopatológicamente diferentes, por tanto, no pueden ser analizados de la misma forma (6,12,24). No obstante, los mayores esfuerzos en el estudio de los THAE se han enfocado en los eventos anteparto (25)(26)(27)(28)(29).…”

RESUMENEste estudio observacional analítico de casos y controles de base hospitalaria, con información obtenida de historias clínicas, busca determinar los factores clínicos asociados a la hipertensión arterial severa posparto y la magnitud de dicha asociación en la población obstétrica que ingresó entre 2010 y 2012 a la Clínica Materno Infantil San Luis, Bucaramanga, Colombia. Los casos fueron mujeres con parto atendido en dicha institución en ese periodo y diagnosticadas con hipertensión arterial severa puerperal, incluidas quienes se diagnosticaron en el posparto antes de su egreso hospitalario o en un reingreso.
