Popis: | The blood pressure control in preeclampsia (PE) was studied in 13 pregnant women with PE and 13 controls. They received a 25 minute i.v. infusion of a fi-adrenergic receptor agonist, terbutaline. A paradoxical decrease of systolic blood pressure was seen in women who had, or later developed, severe PE. Blood samples were analyzed for angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), norepinephrine, dopamine, angiotensin II (All), renin, aldosterone, Cortisol. In the PE group the severity of PE correlated well with aldosterone levels and differed significantly compared to the control group (p |
