Fetus and newborn affected by maternal hypertensive disorders - what does this mean
Maternal hypertensive disorders are a group of conditions that occur during pregnancy and can have serious effects on the fetus and newborn. these disorders occur when the mother has high blood pressure, either before or during pregnancy, which can cause the placenta to not get enough blood, leading to decreased oxygen and nutrition to the fetus, and potentially resulting in low birth weight, preterm birth, or even stillbirth in severe cases.
What happens during the disease - fetus and newborn affected by maternal hypertensive disorders
Maternal hypertensive disorders can have a significant impact on the fetus and newborn. this is due to the fact that high blood pressure in the mother can cause decreased blood flow to the placenta, depriving the fetus of oxygen and nutrients. this can lead to intrauterine growth restriction, preterm birth, and stillbirth. in addition, high maternal blood pressure can cause placental abruption, preeclampsia, and eclampsia, all of which can have serious consequences for the health of the fetus and newborn.
