Abstract

Objective. To investigate mode of death in hypertensive disease of pregnancy Methods. Morgue registry was reviewed at Ataturk University Hospital between 2002-2008, and cases related with hypertensive disease of pregnancy were determined. Demographic data, clinical data on admittance, diagnosis and death mode of cases were reviewed. Results. A total of 15 cases that died of hypertensive disease of pregnancy were found. Death cause was gross intacerebral hemorrhage in 9 cases (%60), multiple organ failure in 3 cases (%20), adult respiratory distress syndrome in 1 case (% 7) and hepatic rupture in 1 case (%7). Mode of death was not known in one case. Only two patients have standard prenatal care. Eight of patients were admitted to a hospital first time when eclamptic convulsions developed. Conclusion. In the two thirds of the cases, the mode of death was gross intracerebral hemorrhage that was almost a preventable disease. It reflects substandard prenatal care. The processes that cause poor attendance to the prenatal care must be investigated.

Özet

Amaç. Gebeliğin hipertansif hastalıklarına bağlı ölümlerin nedenlerini araştırmak Yöntem. 2002-2008 yılları arasında Atatürk Üniversitesi Hastanelerinin morg kayıtları incelenerek gebeliğin hipertansif hastalıklarına bağlı ölümler saptandı. Hastaların demografik verileri, hastaneye kabul edildiklerinde klinik ve laboratuar bulguları, tanıları ve ölüm nedenleri hasta dosyalarından retrospektif olarak çıkarıldı Bulgular. Bu tarihler arasında toplam 15 hasta gebeliğin hipertansif hastalıklarına bağlı olarak ölmüştü. Ölüm nedeni 9 (%60) olguda gros intraserebral hemoraji, 3 (%20) olguda çoklu organ yetmezliği, 1 (%7) olguda ARDS (adult respiratory distress syndrome), 1 (%7) olguda karaciğer rüptürüydü. Bir olguda ölüm nedeni tam olarak saptanamadı. Karaciğer rüptürüne bağlı olgu dışında tüm hastalarda eklampsi saptandı. İki olgu düzenli prenatal bakım almıştı. Sekiz olgu ise gebelik sırasında ilk kez eklampsi nöbeti nedeniyle bir hastaneye başvurmuştu. Sonuç. Gebeliğin hipertansif hastalıklarına bağlı ölümlerin üçte ikisinin büyük oranda önlenebilir bir neden olan intraserebral kanamadan kaynaklanması prenatal bakımın yetersizliğini yansıtmaktadır. Gebelerin neden yeterli prenatal bakıma almadıkları incelenmelidir.
