Insuficiência renal aguda em pacientes com Síndrome Hellp

A síndrome HELLP ocorre em gestantes ou puérperas e é caracterizada pelo surgimento de hemólise, elevação de enzimas hepáticas e plaquetopenia. Desenvolve-se em aproximadamente 10% das gestantes com pré-eclampsia, sendo mais freqüente entre a 22a e 36a semanas de gestação. Insuficiência renal aguda é uma complicação freqüente e grave nessas pacientes. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar, em pacientes com síndrome HELLP, a prevalência de insuficiência renal aguda e estudar fatores a ela associados. Foram estudadas 49 gestantes com síndrome HELLP, internadas no Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre no período de janeiro de 1990 a fevereiro de 2000. A elevação da creatinina sérica acima de de 1,5 mg/dl foi o critério utilizado para definir insuficiência renal aguda. As pacientes foram divididas em dois grupos: Grupo 1-pacientes que apresentaram insuficiência renal aguda e Grupo 2-pacientes que não apresentaram alteração da função renal. O Grupo 1 foi constituído de 23 pacientes (46,9%), dos quais 13 pacientes (26,6%) recuperaram gradualmente a função renal e 10 pacientes (20,4%) necessitaram de tratamento dialítico. Dos pacientes submetidos à diálise, três pacientes recuperaram função renal e 3 permanecem em hemodiálise crônica (6,1%) por danos renais irreversíveis. Ocorreram 6 óbitos (12,2%): 5 (10,2%) deles nas pacientes do grupo que desenvolveu insuficiência renal. Concluímos que a insuficiência renal aguda e crônica foi uma complicação freqüente e grave da síndrome HELLP nas gestantes estudadas. As pacientes submetidas à diálise apresentaram maior morbimortalidade e pior prognóstico. Essa situação pode levar à insuficiência renal terminal com necessidade de diálise crônica indefinidamente, com graves repercussões clínicas, econômicas e sociais.

Síndrome HELLP recorrente: relato de dois casos

A síndrome HELLP é uma complicação grave da pré-eclâmpsia que determina aumento de morbidade e mortalidade maternas e perinatais. São descritos dois casos de recorrência dessa síndrome, sendo que em um deles ocorreu morte materna. Este trabalho alerta para o risco aumentado de síndrome HELLP na gestação seguinte.

Eficácia da haptoglobina como marcador de hemólise no diagnóstico da síndrome HELLP

Introduction: The HELLP syndrome is a severe complication of pregnant women with preeclampsia (PE), characterized by association of hemolysis, changes in liver enzymes and thrombocytopenia. Hemolysis, defined by the presence of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, is one of the characteristics in this syndrome. However, as hemolysis occurs in a short time there is some difficulty in its laboratory diagnosis. Therefore, the search for a more sensitive and specific method for hemolysis determination may help in the early diagnosis of the HELLP syndrome. Objectives: a) To determine the plasma concentration of haptoglobin in normotensive pregnant women and in pregnant women with PE, classified into mild PE, severe PE and HELLP/partial HELLP syndrome; b) To compare the efficacy of haptoglobin plasma concentration and serum total bilirubin as criteria for hemolysis diagnosis in HELLP/partial HELLP syndrome. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analytical and comparative study involving 66 pregnant women diagnosed with PE, being 25 cases with mild PE, 28 with severe PE, and 13 with HELLP/partial HELLP syndrome. Twenty-one normotensive pregnant women were included for comparison of haptoglobin plasma concentration between the groups and to determine the normal values for pregnant women. The variables studied were: maternal age, gestational age, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, proteinuria, hematocrit and hemoglobin values, platelet count, serum total bilirubin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (AST) and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (ALT), urea, creatinine and uric acid, and also plasma concentrations of haptoglobin. The results were analyzed by nonparametric tests, with a significance level of 5%. Results: The values of urea, uric acid, AST, ALT and LDH were significantly higher, while the number of platelets was lower in pregnant women with HELLP/partial HELLP syndrome compared to pregnant women with mild PE and ...

Redução da morbi-mortalidade na síndrome de hellp completa com o uso de altas doses de dexametasona

Objective: To determine the clinical maternal and neonatal outcomes in HELLP syndrome patients treated with dexamethasone who either developed renal injury or renal insufficiency and to identify predictive values of urea and creatinine for the identification of subjects with HELLP syndrome at risk of developing renal insufficiency. Methods: Non-radomized intervention study of dexamethasone use in HELLP syndrome. A total of 62 patients were enrolled at Maternidade Escola Januário Cicco (MEJC). Patients received a total of 30 mg of dexamethasone IV, in three doses of 10 mg every 12 hours. A clinical and laboratory follow up were performed at 24, 48 and 72 hours. Patients were followed up to 6 months after delivery. Patients were grouped in accordance to renal function, i.e, normal and some type of renal lesion. Renal lesion was considered when creatinine was equal or greater than 1.3 mg/dl and diuresis less than 100 ml in 4 hours period and renal insufficiency was defined when dialysis was needed. Results: A total of 1230 patients with preeclampsia were admitted at MEJC. Of those 62 (5%) developed HELLP syndrome. There was no statistical difference in the groups with renal involvement or normal renal function with respect to the demographics, type of anesthesia used and delivery, and weight of the newborn. An improvement in the AST, ALT, LDH, haptoglobine, antithrombine, fibrinogenen and platelets was observed within 72 hours after dexamethosone use. There was a significant increase in the diuresis within the interval of 6 hours before the delivery and 24 hours after it. Of the 62 patients, 46 (74. 2%) had normal renal function and 16 (25.8%) evolved with renal lesion, with 5 (8.1%) needing dialysis. These 5 patients who received dialysis recovered the xi renal function. The delay in administering dexamethasone increased in 4.6% the risk of development of renal insufficiency. Patients with renal insufficiency had received significantly more blood products than subjects without renal lesion (p=0.03). Diuresis, leukocytes, uric acid, urea, creatinine were significantly different between the groups with normal renal function, renal lesion and renal insufficiency. The levels of creatinine 1.2mg/dl and uric acid 51mg/dl, at admission are predictive of subjects who will evolve with renal lesion (p<0.001). Maternal mortality was 3.2%. None of the subjects with renal insufficiency evolved with chronic renal disease. Conclusions: Dexamethasone in patients with HELLP syndrome seems to reduce significantly the hepatic microthrombosis and normalize hemostasis as seen by improvement of liver function. Renal injury can be considered, in HELLP syndrome, when creatinine levels are greater than 1.3 mg/dl and diuresis less than 100 ml/h in interval of 4 hours. The level of creatinine greater than 1.2 mg/dl and urea greater than 51mg/dl are predictive of subjects with HELLP syndrome who will develop renal injury. Patients who receive more red cell packs develop renal insufficiency. Finally, the delay in administering dexamethasone increases the risk of developing renal insufficiency

Partial HELLP Syndrome: maternal and perinatal outcome

CONTEXTO: A síndrome HELLP é uma grave complicação da gestação caracterizada por hemólise, elevação das enzimas hepáticas e plaquetopenia. Algumas gestantes desenvolvem somente uma ou duas dessas características da síndrome HELLP. Esse quadro é denominado de síndrome HELLP parcial (SHP). OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar as repercussões maternas e perinatais das mulheres que desenvolveram SHP e comparar os resultados com mulheres que tiveram hipertensão gestacional ou pré-eclâmpsia sem alterações dos exames laboratoriais para síndrome HELLP. TIPO DE ESTUDO: Observacional, retrospectivo e analítico. LOCAL: Maternidade do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu, Universidade Estadual Paulista, Botucatu, São Paulo, Brasil. AMOSTRA: Foram selecionadas gestantes ou puérperas que tiveram elevação dos níveis pressóricos detectada pela primeira vez após a primeira metade da gestação com ou sem proteinúria entre janeiro/1990 a dezembro/1995. As mulheres foram divididas em dois grupos: Grupo SHP quando as mulheres com hipertensão arterial tinham pelo menos uma, mas não todas as alterações de exames que demonstravam hemólise, elevação das enzimas hepáticas ou plaquetopenia e Grupo Hipertensas pacientes com hipertensão sem alterações nos exames laboratoriais para síndrome HELLP. PRINCIPAIS VARIÁVEIS: Analisamos idade materna, raça, paridade, classificação da hipertensão, idade gestacional no diagnóstico da SHP, alterações nos exames laboratoriais para síndrome HELLP, tempo de permanência no hospital, complicações maternas, via de parto, incidência de prematuridade, restrição de crescimento intra-uterino, natimortos e neomortos. RESULTADOS: 318 mulheres foram selecionadas, das quais 41 (12,9%) tiveram SHP e 277 (87,1%) não desenvolveram alterações dos exames laboratoriais que compõem o diagnóstico da síndrome HELLP. A pré-eclâmpsia foi um tipo de hipertensão mais freqüente no grupo SHP que no grupo hipertensas. Não houve pacientes com hipertensão crônica isolada que desenvolveram SHP. A taxa de cesárea, eclâmpsia e de partos prematuros foi significativamente mais freqüente no grupo SHP que no grupo hipertensas. CONCLUSÃO: Observamos uma conduta agressiva nas pacientes com SHP, que resultou na interrupção imediata da gestação, com elevada taxa de cesárea e de recém-nascido pré-termo. Esta conduta deve ser revista para a redução desses índices.

Complicaciones de la preeclampsia severa y su relación con variables demográficas y obstétricas

Introducción: La preeclampsia severa es una de las principales patologías que afectan a las mujeres embarazadas, sus complicaciones tienen un alto impacto en la salud del binomio madre-hijo. Materiales y métodos: Se realizo una serie de casos, durante un periodo de 1 año se revisaron las historias clínicas de las pacientes que ingresaron a la unidad de cuidado intensivo obstétrico de la Clínica Orquídeas, con diagnóstico de preeclampsia severa. Se describieron los datos demográficos y las complicaciones. Se realizó análisis univariado con las variables de interés y se calcularon diferencias significativas por medio del test exacto de Fisher. Resultados: Se registraron 196 pacientes con preeclampsia severa en el periodo de estudio. Las complicaciones mas frecuentes fueron síndrome HELLP (30,6%), insuficiencia renal aguda (16,3%) y edema pulmonar (10,2%); el ingreso de las pacientes con preeclampsia severa a la UCIO en embarazo aumenta el riesgo de sufrir complicaciones. El síndrome de HELLP se presento con mayor frecuencia en pacientes que realizaron 6 o mas controles prenatales (p=0.066). Discusión: Los resultados evidencian una prevalencia de preeclampsia severa mayor que la observada por otros autores, probablemente por ser una UCI exclusivamente obstétrica. Las complicaciones mas frecuentes son concordantes con otros estudios publicados. El mayor riesgo de complicaciones asociadas en pacientes que ingresan embarazadas a la UCIO podría estar en relación a la severidad de la patología. Se requieren estudios analíticos para establecer asociaciones entre cada una de las complicaciones y sus factores condicionantes.

Asociación de estrés laboral y trastornos hipertensivos en el embarazo

Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de trastornos hipertensivos y estrés laboral en las gestantes trabajadoras atendidas en la Clínica Cafam en el mes de noviembre de 2012, y estimar la posible asociación entre estas dos variables. Metodología: Se realizó un estudio de corte transversal. Se incluyeron todas las pacientes gestantes trabajadoras entre 18 y 39 años, con gestación mayor de 20 semanas y feto vivo, sin antecedentes patológicos de importancia, que ingresaron al servicio de hospitalización general y la unidad de cuidado intermedio obstétrico del 1 al 30 de noviembre de 2012 (total de 252). Para medir el nivel de estrés laboral se aplicó una encuesta validada por el Ministerio de Protección social, previo consentimiento informado y se realizó revisión de las historias clínicas para identificar las pacientes con trastornos hipertensivos del embarazo. Resultados: Se incluyeron pacientes de 18 a 39 años encontrando una media de 26.9 años con una desviación estándar de 5,08. 208 pacientes (82.5%) tenían entre 36 y 40 semanas de gestación, 123 maternas cursaban su primera gestación (48.8%) y, la mayoría tienen una relación estable. Respecto al nivel educativo la formación técnica y el bachillerato fueron los más encontrados (38.49% y 35.32% respectivamente). 102 gestantes (40.48%) desempeñan cargos de auxiliar o asistente seguidos de los trabajos operativos en un 30.56% (77 personas). De las 252 pacientes del estudio, 22 maternas tenían hipertensión gestacional, 28 preeclampsia y 1 síndrome HELLP para un total de 20.24% de gestantes con patología. Hay un alto porcentaje de estrés laboral en la población estudiada (40.08%). Al realizar el análisis de los datos se encontró que la probabilidad que tienen las pacientes con algún trastorno hipertensivo de tener estrés laboral es mayor que la de las pacientes que no presentan patología (OR 1.43 con IC 95% de 0.8 a 2.55). Conclusiones. El estrés laboral tiene una alta prevalencia en la población gestante trabajadora y los resultados sugieren que puede ser uno de los factores contribuyentes en la aparición de trastornos hipertensivos en el embarazo.

Desenlaces maternos y fetales en el manejo expectante de la preeclampsia lejos del término

Introducción La preeclampsia hace parte del espectro de los trastornos hipertensivos asociados al embarazo y es causa de alta morbimortalidad materna. La edad gestacional ha sido relacionada con la presentación más severa de esta cuando ocurren lejanas al término. Hoy en día existe la posibilidad de proporcionar manejo expectante en estos casos en unidades de cuidado obstétrico especializadas, con el fin de disminuir el riesgo de morbimortalidad asociada a la prematurez extrema. Metodología Se realizó un estudio de corte transversal que incluyó pacientes con preeclampsia lejos del término entre las 24 y 34 semanas que recibieron manejo expectante entre 2009 y 2012 en la Unidad de Cuidado Intensivo Obstétrico de la Clínica Colsubsidio Orquídeas. Resultados Se incluyeron 121 pacientes con preeclampsia lejos del término, quienes recibieron manejo expectante. La edad promedio fue 29.8, el promedio de días de manejo expectante fue 4 días, con una mediana de tres días. La edad gestacional de ingreso fue 30 1/7 semanas y la edad promedio de terminación 30 5/7 semanas. El 88.4% recibieron esquema de maduración completo. El 81.6% presentaron preeclampsia severa. El desenlace materno más frecuente fue Síndrome Hellp (37%) y el desenlace fetal fue restricción de crecimiento intrauterino (29%). Discusión Se debe considerar el manejo expectante en toda paciente con preeclampsia previa a la semana 34 para manejo antenatal con corticoesteroides, el cual demostró ser un factor protector para muerte perinatal temprana. No se encontraron diferencias significativas entre la aparición de complicaciones y la cantidad de días de manejo expectante.

Genes candidatos de suscetibilidade a pré-eclampsia: estudo de associação

Preeclampsia is a multifactorial disease of unknown etiology that features with wide clinical symptoms, ranging from mild preeclampsia to severe forms, as eclampsia and HELLP syndrome. As a complex disease, preeclampsia is also influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Aiming to identify preeclampsia susceptibility genes, we genotyped a total of 22 genetic markers (single nucleotides polymorphisms SNPs) distributed in six candidates genes (ACVR2A, FLT1, ERAP1, ERAP2, LNPEP e CRHBP). By a case-control approach, the genotypic frequencies were compared between normotensive (control group) and preeclamptic women. The case s group was classified according to the disease clinical form in: preeclampsia, eclampsia and HELLP syndrome. As results we found the following genetic association: 1) ACVR2A and preeclampsia; 2) FLT1 and severe preeclampsia; 3) ERAP1 and eclampsia; 4) FLT1 and HELLP syndrome. When stratifying preeclampsia group according to symptoms severity (mild and severe preeclampsia) or according to the time of onset (early and late preeclampsia), it was detected that early preeclampsia is strongly associated to risk preeclampsia, eclampsia and HELLP syndrome have different genetic bases, although FLT1 gene seems to be involved in preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome pathophisiology

Agregação familiar e resultados maternos e perinatais da pré-eclâmpsia severa em população do Rio Grande do Norte

To determine whether there is familiar aggregation of severe preeclampsia in a Brazilian population from Rio Grande do Norte and to characterize the maternal and perinatal outcomes in the studied population. Methods: A case control study was performed with 412 participants who were admitted at Maternidade Escola Januário Cicco (MEJC) for medical care. Of these, 264 subjects presented normal blood pressure and 148 were cases. Cases were composed of eclampsia (n=47), HELLP Syndrome (n=85) and Eclampsia associated with HELLP syndrome (n=16). The diagnosis of these illness were based on the citeria developed by National High Blood Pressure Education Program Working (2000). An interview was performed with each subject and questions related to personal and familiar history of hypertension, preeclampsia, HELLP syndrome and eclampsia. Statistical analysis was performed and comparison of median and mean between cases and controls were performed, with the level of significance of 5%. The Odds-Ratio was determined to estimate the risk of preeclampsia within the families. Results: There were no difference in the demographic data between cases and controls. Previous history of chronic hypertension and preeclampsia was more frequent in the case group. Headaches were more frequent in eclampsia and epigastric pain in the HELLP syndrome cases. Bleeding and oliguria were more frequently found in the eclampsia associated with HELLP syndrome cases. Acute Renal insufficiency was a common complication in the case group, but these cases did not evolve to chronic renal insufficiency. The maternal mortality was 0.4% and the perinatal mortality was high, 223 per 1,000 live births. The 111 risk of a woman to develop preeclampsia whose mother has hypertension or had preeclampsia was respectively 2.5 and 3.5. This risk was increased 5 times, when a sibling has hypertension and 6 times when both sibling and mother had previous history of preeclampsia. Conclusions: This study confirms that there is familiar aggregation of preeclampsia in this Brazilian population. The potential for cardiovascular complications due to development of chronic hypertension indicates the need of closely follow up of women who develop preeclampsia

Perfil epidemiológico dos distúrbios hipertensivos na gravidez

The preeclampsia is a disease that evolves to high death rate for the mother and for the fetus. The incidence of this disease in the world is variable and there are no data of this disturb in the Brazilian population. This paper had the objective to determine the incidence and risk factors for development of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in a neighborhood in Natal, RN, Brazil, taking place a prospective study, cohort type, with the objective of evaluating the entire pregnancy of 242 women that got pregnant between 2004-2007. The incidence of hypertensive disorders was of 17%, while the incidence of preeclampsia was of 13.8%. The age average of women that developed the hypertensive disorders was of 27.4 years (SD±.9), whilst those that developed preeclampsia was of 26.6 (SD ±7.8) years and the normotensive was of 23.9 (SD±5.8) (p=0.002). It is noted a significant increase of the hypertensive disorder with age (p=0.0265). The gestational age for those who developed preeclampsia was lower than the women that developed normotensive pregnancy (p=0.0002). The body mass index (BMI) of the group of women that developed the hypertensive disorder was of 25.8 (SD±3.9), significantly higher than the group of normotensive women with 23.5 (SD±3.7) (p=0.02). The levels of triglycerides and cholesterol tended to be higher on women with preeclampsia than on normotensive, p=0.0502 and p=0.0566, respectively. Six (6) women presented with severe preeclampsia and one (1) developed HELLP Syndrome. The resolution of the pregnancy was performed by cesarean section in 70% of women that developed hypertensive disorders, whilst the normotensive was of 23.6% (p<0.0001). A subgroup of the studied subjects was reassessed one year after labor, revealing that 50% of the patients were still hypertensive. There were no larger complications nor mother death during labor. The incidence of hypertensive disorders are above the levels noted in other studies and 30% of the women were within the poles of greater risk for the hypertensive disorders; the elevated BMI in the beginning of the pregnancy is a risk factor for hypertensive disorder. The risk of severe complication in preeclampsia is high, with imminence of eclampsia occurring in 20.1% of women who developed hypertensive disorder of pregnancy. The adequate prenatal care and the opportune labor assistance may minimize the complications of the pregnancy hypertension and avoid mother death, although the risk of women remaining hypertensive is elevated

Fatores de risco individuais e familiares no desenvolvimento da pré-eclâmpia

Preeclampsia is a spectral disease, with different clinical forms which can evolve with severe multisystemic complications. This present study aimed to determine the risk factors associated with preeclampsia (PE); to validate the existence of aggregation of hypertensive disease in families of women with preeclampsia and verify the existence of association between polymorphisms in the VEGF gene and level of VEGF and its soluble receptor (sFlt1). A case-control study was performed (n = 851). Genotyping of VEGF was performed and serum levels of VEGF and sFlt1 were measured by ELISA. It was observed that 38% of mothers (173, 455) of a case of preeclampsia and 30.8% (78 of 361) of controls had history of hypertension (p <0.0001). Similarly, when examining the history of maternal preeclampsia, we observed that 14.6% (48 of 328) of mothers of women with preeclampsia and 9.6% (12 of 294) of mothers of controls had a history of preeclampsia (p = 0.0001). As for maternal history of preeclampsia, we found that 5.1% (15 of 295) of cases and 3.6% (7 of 314) of controls had a history of preeclampsia (p = 0.0568). Sisters of women with preeclampsia also had a history of hypertensive disease in 9% (41 of 455) versus 6.6% (13 of 361), p = 0.002. Similarly when examining the history of preeclampsia in sisters, it was observed that 22.7% (57 of 251) of a sister of case versus 11.4% (26 of 228) of controls had a history of preeclampsia (P = 0.0011). We observed a decrease in free VEGF in the serum of patients (P <0.05) and increased soluble VEGF receptor. There was no association between polymorphisms in the VEGF gene and preeclampsia. The data obtained in this work validate that hypertensive disease in mothers and sisters with preeclampsia are risk factors for preeclampsia. The risk of illness in the family is higher according to disease severity. High incidence of preeclampsia can be assumed by the high incidence of this disease among the controls. Significant differences between the frequency of preeclampsia in mothers of cases and controls indicate familial factors. Work is being conducted with the to eventually perform genome wide association studies to identify susceptibility loci

Síndromes hipertensivas da gestação: identificação de casos graves

A hipertensão arterial está entre as causas mais freqüentes de morte materna. Entre os tipos presentes na gravidez destacam-se as manifestações específicas, isto é, a pré-eclâmpsia e a hipertensão gestacional, definidas clinicamente por aumento dos níveis da pressão arterial após a 20ª semana de gestação, associado (pré-eclâmpsia) ou não (hipertensão gestacional) à proteinúria. Na fase inicial a doença é assintomática, porém, quando não tratada ou não se interrompe a gestação, sua evolução natural é desenvolver as formas graves, como a eclâmpsia e a síndrome HELLP. Eclâmpsia é definida pela manifestação de uma ou mais crises convulsivas tônico-clônicas generalizadas e/ou coma, em gestante com hipertensão gestacional ou pré-eclâmpsia, na ausência de doenças neurológicas. Pode ocorrer durante a gestação, durante o trabalho de parto e no puerpério imediato. É comumente precedida pelos sinais e sintomas de eclâmpsia iminente (distúrbios do sistema nervoso central, visuais e gástricos). A associação de hemólise, plaquetopenia e disfunção hepática já era relatada na literatura na década de cinqüenta. em 1982, Weinstein reuniu estas alterações sob o acrônimo de HELLP, significando hemólise (H), aumento de enzimas hepáticas (EL) e plaquetopenia (LP), e denominou-as de síndrome HELLP. A literatura diverge em relação aos valores dos parâmetros que definem a síndrome. Sibai et al. (1986) propuseram sistematização dos padrões laboratoriais e bioquímicos para o diagnóstico da mesma, que foi adotada pelo Ministério da Saúde do Brasil. As manifestações clínicas podem ser imprecisas, sendo comuns queixas como dor epigástrica, mal-estar geral, inapetência, náuseas e vômitos. O diagnóstico precoce é, eminentemente, laboratorial e deve ser pesquisado de maneira sistemática nas mulheres com pré-eclâmpsia grave/eclâmpsia e/ou dor no quadrante superior direito do abdome. Diferenciar a síndrome HELLP de outras ocorrências, com manifestações clínicas e/ou laboratoriais semelhantes, não é tarefa fácil. O diagnóstico diferencial é particularmente difícil para doenças como púrpura trombocitopênica trombótica, síndrome hemolítico-urêmica e fígado gorduroso agudo da gravidez, devido à insuficiente história clínica e à semelhança dos aspectos fisiopatológicos. O conhecimento da fisiopatologia da pré-eclâmpsia, o diagnóstico precoce e a atuação precisa no momento adequado nas situações complicadas pela eclâmpsia e/ou síndrome HELLP permitem melhorar o prognóstico materno e perinatal.
