Brief Summary

A quick, non-invasive, bedside test to assess fluid status of patients with severe preeclampsia would be very helpful to ICU clinicians severe preeclampsia is associated with an increase in extravascular lung water (EVLW), which can be identified by lung ultrasound before appearance of clinical signs of pulmonary edema but this technique still requires several measurements and could be time consuming. Optic ultrasound is also a safe and repeatable diagnostic tool, which is even quicker and simpler to perform than lung ultrasound. Increased ONSD is associated with increased ICP and it can indirectly reflect the state of intracranial edema that could be a part of generalized edema. More data on the correlation between ONSD and markers of fluid status (EVLW by ultrasound) are needed before ONSD measurements can be recommended as a guide to fluid management in preeclampsia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • the correlation of ONSD with EVLW

    Ultrasound assessment was performed for all enrolled preeclampsia patients within 24 hour before delivery and at 24 hour post-delivery.

    24 hour

Interventions

Ocular ultrasonography was performed with the patients placed in supine position with closed eyes. A layer of ultrasound gel was applied over the closed upper eyelid and the liner high frequency probe 7 - 12 MHz of SonoSite M-Turbo ultrasound machine was placed on the temporal area of the eyelid with the hand holding it resting on the forehead of the patient. The probe is then adjusted to a suitable angle in order to display the entry of the optic nerve into the globe. ONSD is then measured 3mm behind the globe in the transverse plane perpendicular to the optic nerve. For each eye one measurement will be made and the reported ONSD corresponds to the mean of the two values obtained for each patient. it was performed for all enrolled parturients within 24 hour before delivery and at 24 hour post-delivery.

Study Population

Singleton Pregnant female complicated with severe preeclampsia. severe preeclampsia was determined by the presence of one or more of the following features using the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists severe features : * Systolic blood pressure ≥ 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 110 mmHg on two occasions at least 4 hours apart * Thrombocytopenia (platelet count less than 100,000/L) * Impaired liver function indicated by elevated liver enzymes (to twice the upper limit normal concentration), and severe persistent right upper quadrant or epigastric pain not responding to medications and not explained by another diagnosis. * Renal insufficiency (serum creatinine concentration more than 1.1 mg/dL or doubling of the serum creatinine concentration in the absence of other renal disease) * Pulmonary edema * New-onset headache unresponsive to medications and not accounted for by alternative diagnoses * Visual disturbances

You may qualify if:

  • Patient acceptance.
