          Abstract

          Objetivo: Determinar la eficacia y efectividad de la utilización de la nifedipina de liberación programada en micro-gránulos en el tratamiento de la enfermedad hipertensiva del embarazo. Métodos: Se admitieron sesenta y dos pacientes consecutivas con enfermedad hipertensiva del embarazo con edad gestacional mayor de 20 semanas, fueron asignados a recibir 30 o 60 mg de nifedipina de liberación programada en micro-gránulos en la mañana con el punto final de obtener un control eficaz de la presión arterial (presión arterial sistólica ≤ 120 y presión arterial diastólica ≤ 80 mmHg), cuantificada con esfigmomanómetro de mercurio. Casos con historia de insuficiencia cardíaca y que recibían tratamiento antihipertensivo durante el curso del actual embarazo fueron excluidos. Se cuantificó el tiempo requerido para obtener el control eficaz de la presión arterial y se identificaron los episodios de crisis hipertensiva con el tratamiento así como los efectos adversos en la madre o el feto. Resultados: El promedio de edad de las pacientes fue de 28,2±7,8 añs. Peso 75,1±13,2 kg, talla 162,3±7,0 cm. Ídice de masa corporal 28,5 ± 4,6 kg/m2. Las reducciones de las presiones arteriales fueron: decúbito. Presión arterial sistólica (de 140,0±8,1 a 119,0±8,8 mmHg. P < 0,0001), presió arterial diastóica (de 89,7±7,7 a 72,7±7,8 mmHg. P < 0,0001), frecuencia cardíca (de 82,2±10 a 81,3±10 Lat/min. P = 0,31). Sentadas. Presió arterial sistóica (de 140,3±6,8 a 117,9±8,9 mmHg. P < 0,0001), PAD (de 88,6±8,1 a 71,5±8,5 mmHg. P < 0,0001), frecuencia cardíca (de 84,2±9,0 a 82,3±9,4 Lat/min. P = 0,12). De pie. Presió arterial sistóica (de 141,7±6,76 a 118,3±8,5 mmHg. P < 0,0001), presió arterial diastóica (de 88,9±6,9 a 72,6±8,6 mmHg. P < 0,0001), frecuencia cardíca (de 84,8±9,2 a 83,6±9,6 lat/min. P =0,24). El control de las cifras de presió arterial se logróen un promedio de 6 semanas de tratamiento con nifedipina de liberació programada en micro-gráulos. No se produjeron nuevos eventos de crisis hipertensiva ni efectos adversos en la madre o al feto luego de administració del fámaco. Conclusión: La nifedipina de liberación programada en micro-gránulos logró un control efectivo de la presión arterial, demostrando ser segura y eficaz en las pacientes con la enfermedad hipertensiva del embarazo.

          Objective: Determine the efficacy and effectiveness of the use of programmed liberate nifedipine on microgranules in the treatment of the hypertensive disease in pregnancy. Methods: Sixty two serial patients were admitted with hypertensive disease in pregnancy with age gestacional superior than 20 weeks, were they assigned to receive 30 or 60 mg of programmed liberate nifedipine on micro-granules in the morning with the final objective from obtaining an effective control of the blood pressure (systolic blood pressure ≤ 120 and diastolic blood pressure ≤ 80 mmHg), quantified with a mercury sphygmomanometer. Cases with history of heart inadequacy and that they received antihypertensive treatment during the course of the current pregnancy they were excluded. The time required to obtain the effective control of the blood pressure was quantified and the episodes of hypertensive crisis were identified with the treatment as well as the adverse effects in the mother or the fetus. Results: The age of the patients was of 28.2±7.8 years, weigh 75.1±13.2 kilos, height 162.3±7.0 cm, Index of corporal mass 28.5 ± 4.6 kg/m2. The reductions of the arterial pressures were: decubitus. Systolic blood pressure (of 140.0±8.1 at 119.0±8.8 mmHg. P <0.0001), diastolic blood pressure (of 89.7±7.7 at 72.7±7.8 mmHg. P <0.0001), heart rate (of 82.2±10 to 81.3±10 beats/min. P = 0.31). Seated Systolic blood pressure (of 140.3±6.8 at 117.9±8.9 mmHg. P <0.0001), diastolic blood pressure (of 88.6±8.1 at 71.5±8.5 mmHg. P <0.0001), heart rate (of 84.2±9,0 to 82.3±9.4 beats/min. P = 0.12). Of foot. Systolic blood pressure (of 141.7±6.76 at 118.3±8.5 mmHg. P <0.0001), diastolic blood pressure (of 88.9±6.9 at 72.6±8.6 mmHg. P <0.0001), heart rate (of 84.8±9.2 to 83.6±9.6 beats/min. P = 0.24). The blood pressure control was achievement in an average of 6 weeks of treatment with programmed liberate nifedipine on micro-granules. A new event of hypertensive crisis wasn´t happens, neither adverse effect didn’t see in the mother or the fetus after drug administration. Conclusion: The programmed liberate nifedipine on micro-granules achieved an effective control of the blood pressure, demonstrating to be safe and effective in the patients with the hypertensive disease in pregnancy.

          Aggressive versus expectant management of severe preeclampsia at 28 to 32 weeks' gestation: a randomized controlled trial.

          Our purpose was to determine whether aggressive or expectant management of severe preeclampsia at 28 to 32 weeks is more beneficial to maternal and neonatal outcome. Ninety-five eligible patients were randomly assigned to either aggressive (n = 46) or expectant management (n = 49). Aggressive management patients were prepared for delivery, either by cesarean or induction, 48 hours after glucocorticoids were administered. Expectant management patients were managed with bed rest, oral antihypertensives, and intensive antenatal fetal testing. At the time of randomization there were no differences between the two groups in mean systolic blood pressure (170 +/- 9.7 vs 172 +/- 9.4 mm Hg), diastolic blood pressure (110 +/- 5.4 vs 112 +/- 4.2 mm Hg), proteinuria (3.0 +/- 2.3 vs 3.6 +/- 2.3 gm per 24 hours), and gestational age (30.4 +/- 1.6 vs 30.7 +/- 1.5 weeks) for the aggressive and expectant management groups. The average latency period in the expectant management group was 15.4 days (range 4 to 36), and this period was not affected by the amount of proteinuria at randomization. There was no eclampsia or perinatal death in either group. The two groups had similar incidences of abruptio placentae (4.1% vs 4.3%) and similar days of postpartum hospital stay. The expectant management group had a significantly higher gestational age at delivery (32.9 +/- 1.5 vs 30.8 +/- 1.7 weeks, p < 0.0001), higher birth weight, lower incidence of admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (76% vs 100%, p = 0.002), lower mean days of hospitalization in the intensive care unit (20.2 +/- 14 vs 36.6 +/- 17.4, p < 0.0001), and lower incidence of neonatal complications. Expectant management, with close monitoring of mother and fetus at a perinatal center, reduces neonatal complications and neonatal stay in the newborn intensive care unit.

            The safety of calcium channel blockers in human pregnancy: a prospective, multicenter cohort study.

            Our purpose was to examine the potential teratogenicity of calcium channel blockers. Six teratogen information services prospectively collected and followed up 78 women with first-trimester exposure to calcium channel blockers. Pregnancy outcome was compared (by paired t text of chi2 analysis) with that of a control group matched for maternal age and smoking. There was no increase in major malformation (2/66=3.0% [calcium channel blockers] vs 0% [nonteratogenic controls], p=0.27); a fivefold increase was ruled out (baseline 2%, alpha = 0.05, beta = 0.20). The defects reported were attributable to maternal diabetes or coingestion of teratogens. The increase in preterm delivery 28% [calcium channel blockers] vs 9% [nonteratogenic controls], p=0.003), attributed to maternal disease by stepwise regression, was the most important factor responsible for the observed decrease in birth weight (mean -334 gm vs nonteratogenic controls, p=0.08). This study suggests that calcium channel blockers do not represent a major teratogenic risk.

              Hypertensive diseases and eclampsia.

              Worldwide, pre-eclampsia and eclampsia contribute to the death of a pregnant woman every 3 min. In the UK in recent decades, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy have remained one of the leading causes of both maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The management of pregnancies complicated by hypertension has not significantly altered for many years, possibly as a result of little progress being made in our understanding of the condition. New insights, however, have recently been gained into the pathophysiology of pre-eclampsia. These have yet to be translated into new interventions or to make any impact on clinical management of these pregnancies. This review will therefore focus on recent advances relating to research into the aetiology and pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia, but will conclude with a brief update on current therapeutic strategies.
