Podcasts about Eclampsia

La presión arterial siempre es un reto para el médico de Urgencias, sin embargo cuando tenemos un paciente con una patología neurológica se hace mucho más relevante un adecuado control de la PA, respectando los límites, entendiendo la fisiopatología en cada caso en particular y aplicando correctamente el manejo. Revisaremos los manejos recomendados y actualizados, como referencia les dejo ael artículo: Manejo de la Presión Arterial en Emergencias Neurológicas, Wagstaff H, Ledyard HK. Emerg Med Clin N Am 44 (2026) 123–141, donde revisaremos como manejar la HTA en HTA no diferenciada, ACV isquémico agudo, Hemorragia intra cerebral, AIT (Ataque isquémico transitorio), PRES (Sd de encefalopatía posterior reversible), Pre eclampsia y Eclampsia, RCVS (Sd de vasoconstricción cerebral reversible), TCE (trauma craneoencefálico) y finalizaremos con unas controversias sobr el manejo agudo, bienvenidos.

In this episode, I sit down with Kelsey, a Canadian mum of three now living in Newcastle, NSW, who walks us through her deeply contrasting birth experiences — from a marathon first labour, to a premature birth affected by pre-eclampsia, and finally, her powerful HBAC.Kelsey's story is a reminder that birth doesn't follow a straight line. Each pregnancy asked something new of her, and each birth required its own kind of strength.Her first baby arrived after more than 40 hours of labour, beginning at 40+5.After labouring for 24 hours she was still only 1 cm dilated.Her baby was posterior, her waters broke naturally, she eventually accepted an epidural, and after 48 hours of labour she had a vaginal birth — but her baby was taken to special care due to a low baseline heart rate and being born “floppy.”Kelsey's second pregnancy brought a new challenge: pre-eclampsia.Her blood pressure spiked, and she was induced at 33 weeks.Her baby spent two weeks in special care. This was a different experience, one that required patience and resiliance that was different to her first postpartum experience This experience planted the seed for something different the next time, a birth where she felt supported, informed, and safe.With her third baby, Kelsey planned a HBAC right at the last minute at 33 weeks. She always wanted to have a VBAC, but realised if she wanted to give this her best shot, her choice would be at home. She was able to connect with a midwife she felt comfortable with and got her husband on board, after watching the Birth Time movie with together.This time, she felt grounded, prepared, and empowered — and she went on to achieve her dream of a HBAC at home, bringing her baby into the world surrounded by safety, warmth and support.Kelsey credits much of her confidence and preparation to the incredible birth resources she leaned on, including:⭐ Her own knowing and intuition⭐ The Great Birth Rebellion Podcast⭐ The VBAC Homebirth Stories Podcast⭐ Birth Time (the documentary)⭐ Hypnobirthing tools & educationThese helped her understand her options, challenge the narratives she'd been given, and prepare herself emotionally and mentally for a different birth experience.Enjoy this episode! More from Ashley:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The VBAC Village⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Insta: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@ashleylwinning⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.ashleywinning.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ VBAC Homebirth Support ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Group here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Love the podcast? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy me a⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ coffeeDisclaimer: The VBAC Homebirth Stories Podcast is for educational and inspirational purposes only.

Bienvenida a Planeta Parto! Esta semana vas a conocer a Marta, q nos cuenta sus dos experiencias de embarazo y parto. En su primer embarazo, le detectaron signos de pre-eclampsia y en la semana 36 le hicieron una cesárea de urgencia por signos de sufrimiento fetal. Marta conoció el podcast durante su 2o embarazo, preparándose para su soñado Parto Vaginal Después de Cesárea (PVDC). Aunque en el embarazo le comentaron la posibilidad de que tuviera placenta previa, según fue creciendo el bebé y el útero la placenta se desplazó a una zona más alta. Consiguió su PVDC, y aunque tuvo unas complicaciones posteriores al parto, este es otro de esos relatos positivos y motivadores. Espero que disfrutes este episodio tanto como yo!

I was recently asked to OPINE on the labor management for a patient who was receiving IV Pitocin for augmentation, who experienced a placental abruption. One physician stated that in "his opinion", Pitocin increased the risk of placental abruption intrapartum, a point which the original treating physician refuted. So, I was asked to be the "referee" on the play. IV Pitocin can result in some maternal-fetal complications but is abruption one of them as a stand-alone complication. Was the first reviewer's opinion correct? Listen in for details.1. Ben-Aroya Z, Yochai D, Silberstein T, Friger M, Hallak M, Katz M, Mazor M.

Magnesium is one of those unsung heroes of pregnancy care. In this episode of MamaDoc BabyDoc, we break down how magnesium supplementation can help with everyday pregnancy discomforts—like headaches, leg cramps, constipation, and insomnia—and why it may be worth asking your doctor about. We also take a deeper dive into the role of magnesium in the hospital setting, where it's used to treat serious complications like preeclampsia and preterm labor. Tune in for a practical, evidence-based look at when magnesium can be a simple helper at home and when it becomes a life-saving therapy in pregnancy.

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Third-Trimester NT-proBNP for Pre-eclampsia Risk Prediction: A Comparison With sFlt-1/PlGF in a Population-Based Cohort.

In this episode of the Functional Fertility Podcast, Dr. Kalea Wattles is joined by Sarah Thompson, L.Ac., CFMP, and doula, for a deep dive into the nutritional and functional medicine strategies that support a healthy pregnancy and reduce the risk of pre-eclampsia. They explore the specific dietary patterns shown to lower risk for pregnancy-induced hypertension, key lifestyle interventions that offer protection, and the essential lab markers—like uric acid, homocysteine, and vitamin D—that can provide early insight into a patient's risk profile. Sarah shares how genetic polymorphisms can influence nutrient metabolism and pre-eclampsia risk, offering guidance on when to consider genetic testing. The episode wraps with actionable tips on preparing the body for the energetic demands of childbirth through targeted nutritional strategies.

Send us a textIn today's episode, we are joined by Ellena, who shares the deeply personal and transformative stories of both of her births. Ellena's first birth journey was marked by unexpected challenges, as she faced an emergency caesarean at 34 weeks after being diagnosed with eclampsia. She opens up about the subtle, often overlooked signs of the condition during her pregnancy and reflects on the surreal experience of having her son under general anesthesia after suffering an eclamptic seizure. Ellena describes the emotional and physical hurdles she faced as her baby spent time in NICU and she herself was in ICU, while also navigating the complexities of breastfeeding a premature baby.For her second birth, Ellena sought out a private midwife and chose to have a homebirth, giving birth to her daughter at 42+1 weeks. She discusses how she took a proactive approach, conducting extensive research and preparing herself mentally and physically, aware of the slim possibility of experiencing eclampsia once more—yet this time, her journey was different. Ellena beautifully recounts how she created a birth experience that felt empowering, culminating in the peaceful birth of her daughter on her own bed, in the comfort of her home.Ellena's Instagram Links:Eclampsia in Australia & NZ: A prospective population-based studyAustralian Action on Pre-Eclampsia Website RANZCOG - high blood pressure & pre-eclampsia The great birth rebellion podcast - preventing preeclampsia The great birth rebellion podcast - so you've got preeclampsia Support the show@homebirthstoriesaustralia Support the show by buying us a coffee!

In this episode, we welcome back Sarah, who shares her incredible journey of birthing her fourth baby at home—her second home birth after two caesareans, including a special scar birth. If you missed her previous episode (EP67 | Sarah – Mindset Overhaul, Small Babies, 3 Planned Homebirths, HBA2C + Special Scar), you can listen to her earlier birth stories on the podcast.Sarah's pregnancy was smooth until around 35 weeks, when she started experiencing high blood pressure. This led to more hospital appointments, increased monitoring, and pressure from medical professionals who advised against a home birth. She was even diagnosed with pre-eclampsia, adding another layer of challenge to her birth plan.Despite the pressure, Sarah stayed strong in her decision. She surrounded herself with a supportive doula, a dedicated midwife, and her loving husband, who all believed in her ability to birth at home. Although she expected to give birth at 38 weeks, as she had in the past, her pregnancy continued beyond that, heightening the tension.Finally, she went into labour and gave birth safely at home, experiencing an empowering and deeply positive birth. In her own words: “I did it!”—a true testament to her strength, resilience, and trust in her body.If you love hearing real and raw home birth stories, this episode is for you!

In this episode Mel finally talks about pre-eclampsia (she can avoid it no longer!). Mel explains what pre-eclampsia is, how to diagnose it, how it develops and some strategies on how to prevent it. In this episode (part 1) you also learn about who is more likely to get pre-eclampsia so that preventative strategies can be better targeted.

According to the ACOG, eclampsia is a low frequency, high acuity emergent condition. The rate of an eclamptic seizure is 1/200 in those with preeclampsia without severe features but is 4 fold higher ( 4/200 ) in those with preeclampsia with severe features. Traditionally, “textbook eclampsia” management did not include cranial imaging. However, that consensus is changing! In this episode, we will review data making the case for a standardized approach to eclampsia, which includes universal non-contract cranial CT after eclampsia. We will highlight a Clinical Expert Series ACOG publication from July 2024 as well as an upcoming publication from Pregnancy Hypertension in March 2025 which makes the strong case for this radiological diagnostic tool. Listen in for details.

In this episode, Suzanne and Stephanie talk about how to be prepared and manage an eclamptic patient. We give 3 scenarios of eclampsia to stimulate thought about where and how you would manage.The experts at Clinical Concepts in Obstetrics pool their decades of experience caring for critically ill pregnant women to discuss the challenges encountered in caring for these vulnerable women.

Pre eclampsia in late pregnancy is often arrived at with one episode of High BP, two episodes of High Blood Pressure or a case in previous pregnancy without any symptoms in the current one.We see how the current care dynamics in the medical world is quick to categorise a symptom which may need further diagnosis to confirm if someone really has a condition or not, Pre -eclampsia being one of them.While only 6-8 % of women statistically are at high risk of pre-eclampsia or further issues, the micro and over management of the situation often results in lack of support for women desiring natural births (which is how birth happens, naturally!)In this episode, however, we do not discuss prevention or management but what Pre-eclampsia can mean at a physiological level for birthworkers and pregnant women to ask better questions!This episode covers:Definition of PreeclampsiaChanges in the Circulatory , Liver and Kidney Systems involved directly or indirectly with PreeclampsiaQuestions a pregnant woman can ask when presented with a similar situation.What all factors can help better and reliable diagnosis of the situationIf this helped, we encourage you to leave a comment/rating/review on the platform you are listening to this from!Support the showPrepare for Birth, explore Prenatal and Postnatal Preparation Classes, visit www.birthagni.comSupport the show: If you like what you hear, leave us a rating on Spotify app and answer the question at each episode! a review on Apple podcasts.

While pregnancy is a miracle, there are times when it can be uncomfortable and not so glamorous. People hear about morning sickness and swollen feet, but not necessarily about pregnancy complications. Pregnant women need to know what is normal and abnormal in pregnancy so they can know what to look for regarding any concerns. One of the first tips today's guest shared on this episode is choosing a primary care provider you like and trust. Having a good relationship with your doctor or midwife and having continuity of care throughout your pregnancy can help you have a healthier pregnancy. We learned a lot of insightful tips from our special guest, Dr. Alison Cowan. If you are interested in learning more about pre-eclampsia, tips for self-advocacy, common pregnancy complications and what to look for, this episode is for you! Who is Dr. Alison Cowan? Dr. Alison Cowan is an OBGYN, a mom of three (ages 10, 7, and 3), and the Head of Medical Affairs for Mirvie. Mirvie is a maternal health company pioneering a new way for women, expecting parents, and their doctors to predict potential pregnancy complications early on. Alison attended Emory University Medical School, where she also received a master's in clinical research before moving on to do her OBGYN residency at Northwestern University. With over a decade of bedside experience, Alison has delivered hundreds of babies. She is now on a mission to help change the status quo for pregnancy health. She is passionate about sharing tips for self-advocacy, having the healthiest pregnancy possible, and advocating for change and equity in pregnancy health at every opportunity. Alison resides in Colorado with her husband, Patrick, and three children. What Did We Discuss? In this episode, we chat with Alison about the facts behind common pregnancy complications, like pre-eclampsia, how women can advocate for themselves during pregnancy, and equity in pregnancy health. Here are several of the questions that we covered in our conversation: What steps can women take to ensure they have the healthiest pregnancy possible? Why is self-advocacy an important part of a woman's pregnancy? What tips do you have for self-advocacy during pregnancy? What are some common pregnancy complications? And what symptoms should women look for? Can you tell us more about the science and facts behind some of these common pregnancy complications? How common is pre-eclampsia? What causes pre-eclampsia? Can it be prevented? Are some women at a higher risk for developing pre-eclampsia than others? What are the symptoms of pre-eclampsia? Does pre-eclampsia go away after delivery? I know you advocate for equity in pregnancy health. Can you elaborate on this and what it means? Dr. Cowan's passion and knowledge about women's health is evident in this episode. We learned some helpful information that can help every person have a healthier pregnancy. We hope you learned something new, too! Cheers to healthy pregnancies!
