Preeclampsia With Severe Features
Conditions
Keywords
preeclampsia with severe features, magnesium sulfate, Systemic Vascular Resistance, non-invasive cardiac monitoring
Brief summary
This is a single site pilot randomized, controlled, trial randomizing patients with PE with severe features to one of 2 groups: * 24 hours of postpartum magnesium sulfate (current arbitrary standard of care) * Using the Cheetah® device to aid in an individualized duration of magnesium sulfate.
Interventions
Cheetah® non-invasive cardiac monitor system will be used to individually determine the duration of magnesium sulfate postpartum (guided by timing of reduction in Systemic Vascular Resistance (SVR))
24 hours of postpartum magnesium sulfate
