[Prognosis factors associated with the progression of preeclampsia to eclampsia].

This study was undertaken to determine the prognosis value of laboratory and clinical findings in the progression of preeclampsia to eclampsia. Nausea and vomiting and glucose level > 105 mg/dL, serum creatinine level > 1.0 mg/dL, aspartate aminotransferase level > 35 IU/L, alanine aminotransferase level > 40 IU/L and lactate deshiydrogenase level > 450 IU/L can be used to estimate the risk for the advancement to eclampsia. This information could be helpful to the clinician for management purposes.
