HYPERTENSIVE DISORDER OF PREGNANCY- AN OVER VIEW Prof. S.P.Jaiswar Department of Obst. & Gynae. K.G. Medical University, Lucknow INTRODUCTION Commonest medical disorders diagnosed by obstetrician Spectrum of severity ranges mild to severe There is controversy and lack of clarity about mild to moderate HDP INTRODUCTION Despite of years of research in this field still there is lack of consensus about Definition Classification Level of blood pressure at which antihypertensive therapy needs to be started INTRODUCTION Responsible for a high proportion of - hospital admission - labour inductions - fetal morbidity and mortality (20-25%) - major cause - maternal mortality (15-20%) Incidence: 8-10% INTRODUCTION Hypertension in pregnancy complicates 5% of all pregnancies & 11% of first pregnancies Leading cause of Maternal Mortality Account for 40,000 maternal deaths annually In India 30% maternal deaths due to preeclampsia & eclampsia (Chhabra et al) Measuring Blood Pressure At every visit Woman should be sitting with back & arm support without crossing legs for 5 min BP is lowest in lateral recumbent position, & the BP of the superior arm in this position is 10-12 mm Hg lower than the inferior arm Remove all tight clothing Always measure in right arm Instrument at level of heart Diastolic BP at Korotkoff V DEFINITION According to Working Group (2000) of High Blood Pressure Education Programme hypertension is diagnosed when: Blood pressure >140/90 mm of Hg - >30 mm of Hg or more in SBP. - >15 mm of Hg or more in DBP. This rise of BP is observed at interval of 4-6 hrs. Classification of Hypertensive disorder of Pregnancy Gestational hypertension (PIH and transient HT) B.P. > 140/90 mm of Hg for first time during pregnancy. NO proteinuria B.P. return to normal <12 wks post-partum. Final diagnosis made only in post-partum. May be associated with other signs of preeclampsia- headache, epigastric pain, thrombocytopenia. Pre-eclampsia B.P. > 140/90 mm of Hg. After 20 wks of gestation. Proteinuria >300 mg/24 hrs or >1 + dip stick. Classification of Hypertensive disorder in Pregnancy (Contd.) Eclampsia- Convulsion in patients having preeclampsia. It may occur during ante-partum intrapartum, post-partum (upto 10 days). Pre-eclampsia superimposed on chronic hypertension- Chronic hypertension or hypertension with proteinuria after 20 wks gestation or platelet count <100,000mm3. Chronic hypertension- B.P. >140/90 mm of Hg before 20 wks of gestation or persists after 12 wks of post-partum. Classification ACOG 2013 Gestational hypertension – evidence for pre-eclampsia syndrome does not develop & hypertension resolves 12 wks postpartum Pre-eclampsia & eclampsia syndrome Chronic hypertension of any etiology Pre-eclampsia superimposed on chronic hypertension Pre-eclampsia Hypertension (≥140/90 mmHg) on 2 occasions 4 hours apart after 20 wks gestation) + Proteinuria − ≥300mg/24 hr or − Protein ceratinine ratio ≥ 0.3 or − Dipstick 1+ persistent OR Thrombocytopenia – Platelets < 1,00,000/µl Renal insufficiency – creatinine >1.1 mg% or doubling of baseline (no prior renal disease) Liver involvement – Serum transaminase levels (AST or ALT) twice normal) Pulmonary edema Cerebral Symptoms – Headache, Visual, disturbances, convulsions Severity of Pre-eclampsia ACOG Severe Non Severe NICE Mild Hypertension Moderate Hypertension Systolic BP Diastolic BP 140-149 90-99 150-159 100-109 Severe Hypertension ≥ 160 ≥ 110 Severity of Pre-Eclampsia Abnormality Mild Severe SBP <160mm of Hg >160mm of Hg Diastolic BP <100 mm of Hg >110 mm of Hg (BP > 160/110 Proteinuria <2+ Persistent (>3+) Headache Absent Present Visual disturbances Absent Present Upper abdominal pain Absent Present Oliguria Absent Present Convulsion Absent Present (Eclampsia) Serum creatinine Normal Elevated (>1.2 mg/dl) Thrombocytopenia Absent Present (<100,000/mm3) Liver enzyme elevation Minimal Marked ( LDH, ALT or AST) Fetal growth restriction Absent Obvious Pulmonary edema Absent Present ACOG Criteria (2013) Abnormality Non-severe Severe Diastolic BP < 110mmhg ≥ 110mmHg Systolic BP < 160mmhg ≥ 160mmHg Proteinuria None to positive None to positive Headache Absent Present Visual Disturbance Absent Present Upper Abdominal Pain Absent Present Oliguria Absent Present Convulsion (eclampsia) Absent Present Serum creatinine Normal Elevated Thrombocytopenia (<100,000/µl) Absent Present Serum transminase elevation Minimal Marked Fetal Growth restriction Not included Not included Pulmonary edema Absent Present HIGH RISK GROUP Young age < 18 yrs, Primi gravida, obese Multiple pregnancy, new paternity Racial genetic factor Poor socioeconomic status H/o chronic hypertension, family, past H/O PET Maternal age >35 yrs Pre-existing vascular disease, DM, APLA, Thrombophilic PET may appear before 20 wks in-hydatidform mole -acute polyhyromnioss -multiple pregnancy Preconceptional Risk Factors Rates of preeclampsia depend on: severity of underlying complications& combinations of risk factors. Risk factors Risk % Chronic hypertension/renal disease 15-40 Pre gestational DM 10-35 Connective tissue disease (lupus, rheumatoid arthritis) 10-20 Thrombophilia (acquired or congenital) 10-40 Obesity/insulin resistance 10-15 Age older than 40 y 10-20 Limited sperm exposure 10-35 Family history of preeclampsia/ cardiovascular disease 10-15 Woman born as SFGA 1.5 fold Adverse outcome in a previous pregnancy: IUGR, ab placentae, IUFD 2-3 fold Pregnancy-Related Factors Regular antenatal care is mandatory for the prevention & early detection of PE. Risk factors: Magnitude of risk depends on the number of factors Multifetal gestation Unexplained FGR Gestational hypertension Hydrops/hydropic degeneration of the placenta Incidence of Pre-eclamsia- 5-15% Primi-gravida- 3-10% Multi-gravida- 5% PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF PRE-ECLAMSIA The exact pathophysiology is not clear. Pre-eclampsia is a disorder of endothelial function with vasospasm. Histopathology of placenta shows Diffuse placental thrombosis Inflammatory placental decidual vasculopathy Abnormal trophoblastic invasion of end arteries. Altered maternal immune response to fetal/ placental tissue. Pathogenesis: •unknown (Barton& Sibai, 2008). Impaired trophoblast differentiation& invasion Placental & endothelial dysfunction Immune maladaptation to paternal ages. Exaggerated systemic inflammatory response. In PE: Impaired trophoblast differentiation & invasion PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF PREECLAMSIA Increase vascular sensitivity to angiotensin II. Imbalance between prostacyclin and thromboxane A2 Increase oxygen free radicals Abnormal calcium metabolism Vit E, C, Antioxidant and micronutrient deficiency Genetic predisposition Inhibition of Nitric Oxide synthesis- increases main arterial pressure PATHOGENESIS OF PRE-ECLAMPSIA Pathological deterioration of function in a number of organs and systems presumably as a consequences of vasospasm and ischemia has been identified. Changes in Mother Vasospasm Resistance to blood flow arterial hypertension. Release of Angiotensin II endothelial cell to contract endothelial cell damage interendothelial cell leaks subendothelial deposition of platelets and fibrinogen. Vascular changes local hypoxia hemorrhage and necrosis of tissue end organ disturbances in mother. Fetus Reduced uteroplacental perfusion fetal compromise growth retardation, oligohydromnios, IUD Placenta : Placental infarction, calcification, abruptio placentae PATHOLOGICAL CHANGES Cardiovascular System Increased cardiac after load caused byHypertenison, endothelial injury, extravasation- especially in lungs (pulm edema) Haemodynamic Changes Marked reduction in cardiac output Increased peripheral resistance Blood Volume Haemoconcentration Increased vascular permeability Patients is sensitive to vigorous fluid therapy, even sensitive to blood loss at delivery. PATHOLOGICAL CHANGES Haematological Changes Thrombocytopenia- Platelets count <100,000/l, delivery is indicated because platelet count continues to decrease HELLP Syndrome- Haemolysis, Elevated Liver enzyme, Low Platelets count. Coagulation failure occurs when associated consumptive coagulopathy like Placental abruption, profound haemorrhage. Haemoconcentration PATHOLOGICAL CHANGES Kidney Decrease glomerular filtration Decrease renal perfusion Increase plasma uric acid concentration Increased plasma creatinine level (>0.5 mg/dl) Proteinuria >300 mgdl/24 hrs of + 1. Renal failure- tubular necrosis- oliguria, anuria Liver Alteration in hepatic function test Periportal haemorrhagic necrosis in periphery of liver lobuleIncreased serum liver enzyme Hepatic rupture Sub-capsular haemorrhage- abdominal pain and hepatic haemorrhage. HELLP syndrome HELLP syndrome- characterized by H- haemolysis EL- elevated liver enzyme LP- low platelet count It occurs in 20% of women with sever PET associated with placental abruption, renal failure, sub capsular hematoma Increase fetal and maternal mortality. PATHOLOGICAL CHANGES Brain- Hypertension is responsible for Oedema Hyperemia Visual disturbances Thrombosis Convulsions Haemorrhage Confusion and coma Eye- Retinal haemorrhage, papilioedema Retinal detachment- retinal ischemia and infarction Visual loss- cortical blindness Prognosis is good, changes usually return to normal within a week. PREDICTION OF PRE-ECLAMPSIA Prediction of pre-eclampsia depends on variety of biochemical and biophysical markers based on rationale implicated in the pathology and pathophysiology of hypertensive disorder. Role over test- 28-32 wks lateral to supine DBP >20mmHg. Angiotensin II infusion Test- 28-32 wks rise of 20 mm of Hg, DBP with < 8 ng/kg/min Mean arterial Pressure- >90 mm of Hg in 2nd trimester Doppler ultrasound- Persistent of diastolic notch at 18-24 wks. None of the prediction test has been found to be very useful. Uterine artery doppler velocimetry Increased impedance to flow in the uterine arteries as indicated by: Diastolic Notch in uterine artery waveform Increase in uterine artery pulsatility index . is associated with increased risk of preeclampsia. UTERINE ARTERY DOPPLER VELOCIMETRY Development of preeclampsia overall was associated with increased PI, but not the presence of notch before 21 weeks of gestation The sensitivity was 43% and specificity 67% .

FETOPLACENTAL UNIT DYSFUNCTION • • • • • • • Human chorionic gonadotrophin Alphafetoprotein Estriol Inhibin A Pregnancy associated plasma protein A Activin A Corticotrophin release hormone PREVENTION As exact etiology is not known, it can not be prevented, only severity of the condition can be prevented by regular ante-natal check-up (BP, urine albumin.). No drug prevents pre-eclampsia as it has no definite cause of its origin. But following drugs may prevent severity of disease. High dose calcium 2gm/day Decrease intracellular ion Smooth muscle relaxant Decrease responsiveness to pressure stimuli Low dose aspirin - 50-100mg/day Prevents platelets aggregation Decrease thromboxane A2 synthesis Fish oil - 4-9 cap./day Antioxidants - Vit. C, E reduce oxidative stress MANAGEMENT Basic aim of management Termination of pregnancy at appropriate time only curative treatment. Birth of alive and healthy baby. Complete restoration of health of mother.

I.V. within 3-5 mins. 5 gm (10 ml of 50% solu.) deep I.M. in each buttock with 1 ml of 1% of xylocain If recurrent fits after 30 min of loading dose- repeat 2 gm 20% (4 ml drug with 6 ml NS) slow in 5 min. Prevention of convulsion Maintenance dose5 gm deep IM (50%) alternate buttocks after monitoring every 4 hrs. Monitoring of toxicity Presence of patellar reflex- > 10meq/lit, disappear Respiratory rate> 16 min- > 12 meq/lit- respiratory paralysis Urine output>30 ml/hr in last 4 hrs Continue till 24 hrs after last fit/ delivery which ever is later Management of Magsulf toxicity If patellar jerk is absent or urine output < 30 ml/hrstop magsulf and monitor hourly- restart maintenance dose if criteria is fulfilled. RR<16 / min- with hold magsulf. Give antidote- Calcium gluconate 1 gm IV 10 ml of 10% solution in 10 min Mechanical ventilation if respiratory paralysis(>15 meq/lit) Convulsion prevents- when magnesium level maintained at 4 to 7 meq/lit Diuretics in Pregnancy Use throughout pregnancy controversial Commonly prescribed to women with Essential hypertension prior to pregnancy Here diuretics may be continued alone or in combination with other Antihypertensives in pregnancy because increase in plasma volume during pregnancy lesser than normal but not associated with adverse fetal outcome Discontinue in case of superimposed preeclampsia or IUGR MANAGEMENT Obstetrical management Termination of Pregnancy Indications Patient develops signs of imminent eclampsia Severe pre-eclampsia does not respond to conservative treatment. Eclampsia Method of Termination Induction of labour at term if favorable cervix. LSCS in unfavorable cervix or other indication. Obstetrical management> 37 weeks Termination of pregnancy. Induction of labour as per the bishop score. > 34-< 37 weeksTreatment should be individualized BP controlled- explain maternal and fetal adverse effect to relatives. Regular fetal and maternal surveillance. Terminate at 37 weeks. BP uncontrolled, worsening clinical and biochemical parameters- terminate the pregnancy. Obstetrical management>24- <34 weeks corticosteroid coverage BP controlled- continue maternal and fetal surveillanceterminate at 37 weeks. BP uncontrolled, worsening clinical and biochemical parameters- terminate the pregnancy. < 24 weeks Fetal salvage difficult- terminate the pregnancy. MANAGEMENT During Labour Careful BP monitoring Close watch on fetal heart sound Early ARM to accelerate the labour Analgesia – epidural Early intervention in IInd stage- forceps, ventouse Inj. Oxitocin 10 IU Im. with delivery of baby as active management of 3rd stage of labour prevent PPH. Watch for PPH- patient does not tolerate slight blood loss. Methyl ergometrine is not to be given Decision to perform cesarean section is based on Gestational age, FHR tracing, Doppler studies, AFI, fetal presentation Condition of cervix (Bishops score) Maternal condition specially uncontrolled BP and developing complications In general the presence of severe PET is not an indication for cesarean delivery and decision has to be individualized In severe PET for LSCS, GA carries a risk for aspiration and failed intubation owing to airway edema and is associated with marked increase in cerebral pressure during intubation & extubation These patients may need intubation under fiberoptic observation with the availability of immediate tracheostomy Regional anesthesia is contraindicated in presence of coagulopathy or severe thrombocytopenia MANAGEMENT Post-natal Period Dose of antihypertensive is usually reduced Methyl dopa is discontinued- causes post-partum depression ACE inhibitor may be started- if required Patient must be counseled for recurrence in future pregnancy or develop hypertension in later life. Antihypertensives in Postpartum period Should be started if SP > 150 mm Hg & DP > 100 mm Hg Discontinued if BP remains below hypertensive level for atleast 48 hours Causes of exacerbation of Hypertension in Postpartum period: - IV fluids given in labour - IV Oxytocin in labour - Mobilization of extracellular fluid to intravascular compartment Antihypertensives in Postpartum period & Breast feeding All antihypertensives are found in breast milk but plasma: milk ratio of drugs is different Long term effects of these drugs on breastfeeding infants not studied Choice of Antihypertensives in Postpartum period •Labetalol & Nifedipine drug of choice •Labetalol/ Hydralazine (IV)- in Hypertensive emergency Diuretics- only indicated in Pulmonary edema, decrease milk production ACE inhibitors - adverse effect on neonatal renal function Methyldopa- Postpartum depression Amlodipine- also a calcium channel blocker but not used due to limited studies in literature supporting use Eclampsia Dr. S.P. Jaiswar Professor Dept. of Obst. & Gynae KGMU Lucknow Introduction Convulsive state of pre-eclampsia is called eclampsia. Pre-eclampsia is complicated by generalized tonic and clonic convulsions and coma . Incidence 1 in 500 to 1 in 30 More common in primi-gravida Five time more common in twins 50% occur in late pregnancy According to time of onset of convulsions Ante- partum- 50% Intra- partum- 30% Intercurrent Post- partum- 20% Cause of Convulsions Cerebral irritation- due to cerebral hypoxia - due to spasm of cerebral vessels Cerebral oedema- perivascular oedema Cerebral dysarrythmia - Following anoxia or oedema Cerebral Pathology Cortical and sub- cortical oedema Infarction Haemorrhage Hypoxia, ischaemia or oedema Clinical featuresSometimes patient shows premonitory symptoms before developing convulsions Divided into four stages Pre monitory Stage Tonic Stage Clonic Stage Stage of Coma Premonitory Stage Patient become unconscious Twitching of muscles of face, tongue, limbs Eyeballs roll or turned to one side, become fixed Its last for 30 sec. Tonic Stage Whole body goes into a tonic spasm Respiration ceases, tongue protrudes out Cyanosis appears, eyeballs become fixed This stage last for 30 sec Clonic Stage Voluntary muscles undergo alternative contraction and relaxation Twitching start from the face then involve one side of extremities and ultimately the whole body Biting of tongue Breathing is laboured and blood stained frothy secretions Cyanosis gradually disappear Lasts for 1-4 min. Stage of Coma- Following fits patient passes in stage of coma Status eclampticusMultiple recurring fits at varying intervals Differential Diagnosis Epilepsy Hysteria Encephalitis and Meningitis Puerperal cerebral thrombosis Poisoning Cerebral malaria Intra- cranial tumors Prognosis Immediate Mortality-2-30% maternal mortality Causes of Maternal death Cardiac Failure Pulm oedema Aspiration septic pneumonitis Cerebral hemorrhage Acute renal failure Cardiopulmonary arrest Adult respiratory distress syndrome Post partum shock Puerperal sepsis Fetal Complications Peri natal mortality- 30-50% Pre maturity- spontaneous, induced Intra uterine asphyxia- Infarction, retroplacental, haemorrhage spasm Effect of drugs Trauma Management- Prevention To control blood pressure Prophylactic magsulf therapy Patient to be referred to tertiary centre Hospital Management- Shout for help Maintain airway, breathing and circulation Oxygen administration 8-10 L/min Arrest convulsions Ventilator support Prevention of injury Hemodynamic stabilization Delivery within 6-8 hr, maximum 12 hrs Prevention of complications Post partum care Specific ManagementAnti-convulsions- Magnesium sulphate is the drug of choice Pritchard regimen (Intramuscular) 4 gm I/V, over 3-5 min(20 ml of 20% solution) 10 gm I/M deep(5 gm in each buttock-50% solution) Maintenance dose- 5 gm I.M. 4 hrly Intravenous- Zuspan or Sibai 4-6 gm IV over 15-20 min 1-2 gm/hr IV infusion INTRAMUSCULAR DOSAGE SCHEDULE Magnesium sulphate 8 ml (50% weight by volume = 4gm) dissolved in 12 ml of saline ( total=20 ml) for 20 % w/v intravenous dose Magnesium sulphate 10 ml (5gm) injected deep intramuscular in each buttock.(50% w/v dose) Addition of 1 ml of 2% lidocaine reduces pain. LOADING DOSE : 4 gm of magnesium sulphate as 20% solution intravenously at rate of 1 gm/min + 10 gm of 50% magnesium sulphate solution , one half (5 gm) injected deeply in upper outer quadrant of each buttock. INTRAMUSCULAR DOSAGE SCHEDULE MAINTAINENCE DOSE Every four hour give 5 gm of 50% w/v solution (10 ml= 5 gm) injected deep intramuscular in upper outer quadrant of alternate buttocks BUT only after ensuring that : 1.Patellar reflex is present 2.Respiration not depressed 3.Urine output in previous 4 hour exceeded 100 ml. In case of recurrent fits half loading dose : 2gm more intravenously as 20% solution is given. 4 ml of 50% w/v (2 gm of magnesium sulphate) dissolved in 6 ml of saline to make 2 gm of 20% w/v solution( 2gm in 10 ml) ADVERSE EFFECTS OF MAGSULPH Fits controlled at blood levels of 4-7 meq/l 10 meq/l: patellar reflexes disappear >= 10 meq/l : respiratory depression >=12 meq/l : respiratory paralysis and respiratory arrest Neonatal respiratory depression only if severe hypermagnesemia at delivery Neonatal compromise usually not problematic Antidote Calcium gluconate or calcium chloride 1 gm intravenously and witholding further magnesium sulphate reverses mild to moderate respiratory depression For severe cases prompt tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation required. Magnesium Sulphate- Preferred Control fits without depression in mother and foetus Reduce of recurrent convulsions Significantly reduce maternal death (3%) Reduce perinatal mortality Anti hypertensive drugs- BP >160/105 mm of Hg (NHBPEP-2000) Diuretics-In pulmonary oedema(20-40 mg IV) Other Regimens Lytic cocktail- Is a combination of chlorpromazine, promethazine and pethidine Diazepam Phenyton- in1000mg, iv infusion in one hour, 500mg oral after 10 hrs ,24hrs postpartum Other Regimens Lytic cocktail- Is a combination of chlorpromazine, promethazine and pethidine Diazepam Phenyton- in1000mg, iv infusion in one hour, 500mg oral after 10 hrs ,24hrs postpartum ANTIHYPERTENSIVE THERAPY HYDRALAZINE- 5 to 10mg at 15 to 20 min till satisfactory BP Drug of choice during pregnancy act on periferal vessels. LABETALOL- 10mg IV double the dose at every 10 min till get satisfactory response or maximum-220mg NIFEDIPINE-10mg oral, repeated in 30 min, if necessary VERAPAMIL-5 to 10mg per hour NIMODIPINE-continuous infusion or oral. KETANSERIN NITROPRUSSIDE MANAGEMENT DIURETICS - causes intravascular volume depletion compromise placental perfusion. HYPEROSMOTIC AGENTS- should be used in pulmonary oedema only FLUID THERAPY- Lactated Ringer solution-60-125ml/hr. excessive fluid may cause pulmonary oedema. INVASIVE HEMODYNAMIC MONITORING-to manage oliguria and to avoid pulmonary oedema. DELIVERY- prefer vaginal delivery. Less tolerant to blood loss. ANALGESIA & ANESTHESIA- Epidural is prefer then SA or GA Management of complicationsPulmonary oedema Heart failure Anuria Hyperpyrexia Psychosis OTHER HYPERTENSIVE DISORDERS Chronic hypertension- Essential hypertension Secondary hypertension- Renal, endocrinal vascular Systolic hypertension- Thyrotoxicosis, Hyperkinetic circulation It should be managed According to cause and severity- During antenatal, intranatal and postnatal period to reduce maternal and fetal complication and give better outcome.
