Evaluation of Therapy in Preeclampsia Patients in Several Public and Private Hospitals

“…Another study showed that term pregnancy had a higher risk of severe preeclampsia-eclampsia compared with preterm pregnancy. However, the severity of complications in preeclampsia had an association with preterm delivery 13,14 . This result is reciprocal with the theory of placental implant ischemia, which states that preeclampsia increases with increasing gestational age.…”
