  • Title: [HELLP syndrome and pregnancy hypertension: severity? Anesthetic management].
    Author: el Hairy A, Saint-Maurice C.
    Journal: Cah Anesthesiol; 1994; 42(5):613-8. PubMed ID: 7728606.
    Abstract:
    Four cases of HELLP Syndrome (Haemolysis, Elevated liver enzymes, Low Platelet count) (HS) have given the authors an opportunity for this brief review. HS should be evoked in any pregnant woman with high blood pressure during the last term, for it is a real emergency. Symptomatic treatment and rapid extraction constitute the commonly accepted therapy, by which maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality can be considerably reduced.
