Abstract
Background &Method: To evaluate the maternal outcomes through ABG index and its
influence on new-borns through Apgar scoring. Role of arterial blood gas values and their
implications to patient management.A total of 130 women with PIH syndrome were treated in
Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of IMCHRC, Indore, over a period of 12 months
Result:In this study, 66.10% PIH patients improved by conservative management, whereas
33.88% required ventilatory support of which 5.08% died on mechanical ventilation.
Amongst which maximum patients which succumbed showed decompensated metabolic
acidosis at 0 hr ABG.In this study, the mean pH value, PO2, HCO3 in severe PIH cases were
lower than the mild PIH cases, whereas the mean PCO2 and BE levels in severe PIH cases
were higher than the mild PIH cases. Therefore, with the exerbation of the disease,the
differences of indexes from normal values became larger.
