Pregnancy Hypertensive Disorders: Understanding Risks, Diagnosis, and Management
This course gives nurse anesthesiologists a practical, clinically focused roadmap for caring for patients with preeclampsia, eclampsia, and HELLP syndrome across labor, delivery, and cesarean section. You’ll review the underlying pathophysiology that drives hemodynamic instability, learn how to choose and tailor neuraxial vs general anesthesia in the setting of thrombocytopenia and severe hypertension, and refine your approach to magnesium, antihypertensives, fluid balance, and invasive monitoring. Postpartum, you’ll walk through structured strategies for blood pressure control, seizure prophylaxis, ICU triage, and long-term risk counseling to reduce maternal morbidity and improve outcomes in this high-risk obstetric population.
