Abstract:
Aims and Objectives: (1) To evaluate the incidence of eclampsia (2) To study material and perinatal outcome in eclamptic patients and its management. Methodology: Prospective study was done between July 2007 to June 2012. A total of 308 patients with eclampsia were included in the study. Results: The incidence of eclampsia is about 1.31 %. Majority of patients were primipara and between 21-25 years of age group. 97.1% of patients showed good response to MgSO4 therapy. 53.9 % patients had vaginal delivery while 46.1 % patients had LSCS. Conclusion: Eclampsia is not a totally preventable disease but its incidence can be decreased by proper antenatal care, early diagnosis of Pregnancy Induced Hypertension (PIH) and its proper management.
