Eclampsia at Harare Maternity Hospital. An epidemiological study

C A Crowther. S Afr Med J. .

Abstract

The epidemiological characteristics of 34 cases of eclampsia treated at Harare Maternity Hospital during 1982 are described. Of these patients 70.6% had received antenatal care and the majority of these had had a normal blood pressure 7 days before their first convulsion. A seasonal variation in the incidence of eclampsia was noted. Factors important in reducing the incidence of eclampsia are discussed.
