Cost-Effectiveness of Present Programs for Detection of Asymptomatic Hypertension in Relation to the Severity of Hypertension Andproteinuric Hypertension
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 March 2009
Abstract
Proteinuric hypertension is an important cause of maternal and perinatal mortality. Eclampsia cannot always be prevented. The likelihood of identifying a new case of proteinuric hypertension at any particular visit is very low using traditional antenatal care schedules, and care could be focused on women at higher risk.
