Journal Title: Harsukh Educational Charitable Society International Journal of Community Health and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Medical situations like eclampsia, ante and post-partum hemorrhage all have increased the incidence of maternal mortality. Pre-eclampsia leads to a potentially lethal complication like placental abruption, disseminated intravascular coagulation, hemorrhage, liver failure, acute kidney failure and cardiovascular collapse. There has been no study so far on the hematological parameters associated with pregnancy induced hypertensive subjects. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the hematological parameters amongst pregnancy induced hypertensive subjects. Materials and methods: The present prospective study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, District Hospital, Dhoulpur, Rajasthan, India. The subjects with systolic pressure more than 140 mmHg and diastolic pressure more than 90 mm Hg were included in the study. All the required hematological markers like hemoglobin, PCV, MCV and red blood cell and platelet counts were estimated. All the subjects were observed throughout the pregnancy and the outcome was noted. All the data obtained was arranged in a tabulated form and analysed using SPSS software Results: The present study enrolled 90 subjects with maternal hypertension. The mean age of the subjects was 28.78+/-3.89 years. There were 15.6% females less than 20 years of age, majority subjects (50%) were between 20-25 years of age. There were 87 subjects who survived hypertensive crises. Conclusion: In our study, level of MCV and PCV showed significant difference in the pregnancy outcome. All the rest of the hematological markers were reduced amongst maternal deaths as compared to live births.
