Course overview

Preeclampsia and Hemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes, and Low Platelet (HELLP) syndrome are two serious pregnancy conditions that pose a substantial risk to the health of pregnant women and the fetus. Preeclampsia is a hypertensive disorder that usually develops after 20 weeks of gestation and is characterized by extremely high blood pressure and protein presence in the urine, and Hemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes, and Low Platelet (HELLP) syndrome is a life-threatening variant of preeclampsia usually seen in the later stages of pregnancy or soon after childbirth. This course defines the cause, clinical presentation, and risk factors associated with Preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome. Additionally, it discusses treatment options and vital nursing considerations for both conditions that can be implemented to manage symptoms and improve health outcomes.
