Abstract

Parturients with preeclampsia are at significant risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality. Understanding the pathophysiology and hemodynamic changes of the disease are essential to optimize maternal and fetal outcomes. Anesthesiologist together with multidisciplinary team plays a crucial role in establishment of optimal management during anesthesia in patients with preeclampsia.
