Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy constitute a leading cause of maternal and perinatal mortality worldwide. Preeclampsia, with or without severe features, is a disorder of pregnancy associated with new-onset hypertension, usually with accompanying proteinuria, which occurs most often after 20 weeks of gestation and frequently near term. This disease represents a spectrum of hypertensive disease in pregnancy, beginning with gestational hypertension and progressing to develop severe features, ultimately leading to its more severe manifestations, such as eclampsia and HELLP syndrome. This disease encompasses 2% to 8% of pregnancy-related complications, more than 50,000 maternal deaths, and over 500,000 fetal deaths worldwide. Early diagnosis and prompt management are essential to preventing maternal and neonatal complications through symptomatic management and delivery planning.This activity reviews the clinical presentation, complications, and management of preeclampsia. The course describes the role of the interprofessional team in managing and improving care for affected patients.
