Article Synopsis
- Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is commonly associated with eclampsia and preeclampsia, but its specific risk factors in pregnant patients are less understood.
- A study from 1997 to 2017 analyzed 151 eclampsia patients in an ICU, finding that 25 (16%) developed PRES, particularly in those over 25 and with recurrent seizures.
- Despite the occurrence of PRES, the overall maternal mortality rate for these patients was low at 4%, suggesting varying outcomes compared to existing literature.
