What assessment should women with pre-eclampsia have?
The committee agreed, based on their clinical expertise, that women with pre-eclampsia should have a full clinical assessment at every antenatal appointment and should be admitted to hospital if there are any concerns about the wellbeing of the woman or her baby. This would include (but was not limited to) reasons such as severe hypertension or other features of pre-eclampsia indicating increased risk of adverse outcomes. There was some evidence that the fullPIERS and PREP-S models can help identify women at different risks of adverse outcomes because of pre-eclampsia.
