Our son born due to Preeclampsia

An updated video of our son who was born two month premature due to preeclampsia. He spent 3 weeks in the NICU. Mommy spent 12.5 days in the hospital due to her preeclampsia condition. This is our journey though pictures.

A little over one year after our son was born we decided to ‘pay it forward’ by hosting a Preeclampsia Awareness Walk-A-Thon to help raise awareness and funds for the Preeclampsia Foundation. Thank you to all who participated!

Insidermedicine in 60 - November 2, 2007

From California - A new glaucoma medication may improve compliance. The FDA has approved Combigan, which combines an alpha agonist and a beta-blocker. The medicine lowers IOP by 7 mmHg on average. It should not be used in those with asthma, COPD or heart block.

From Wisconsin - A new study on over 1200 infants, who were followed for over a decade, shows that those who were breast fed for over 4 months had better improvement in lung volume and function. The beneficial effect, however, was not noted if the mother had asthma. In fact, those born to asthmatic mothers had a 6% reduction in lung function.

From Minneapolis - General Mills is recalling over 4 million pizzas which are sold under the Totino’s and Jeno’s brand names. The recall was issued after health authorities noted that 9 out of 21 cases of E. Coli reported in the U.S. had resulted from ingesting one of these pizzas.

And finally from London - A meta-analysis of 25 studies, which collectively enrolled over 3 million subjects, links pre-eclampsia to heart disease later in life. Women with pre-eclampsia had a 2 fold risk of heart disease, and were 4 times more likely to develop hypertension in later life.

Insidermedicine in 60 - October 16, 2007

From the UK - Smoking either during or after pregnancy may increase the risk of sudden infant death syndrome or SIDS. Researchers have noted that 90% of infants who developed SIDS were born to mothers who smoked. In addition, the risk of developing SIDS is directly proportional to the amount of time exposed to second hand smoke: for instance, those who were exposed to smoke 8 hours per day were 8 times more likely to develop SIDS.

From Chicago - Remembering drug names and doses is difficult for patients. A study of over 200 patients who took medicine to lower their blood pressure shows that those with high health literacy failed to remember their medication names nearly a third of the time, and those with poor literacy failed to remember the names of their meds 60% of the time.

From Palo Alto - A test for predicting who will get Alzheimer’s may soon be available. A blood test that measures 18 serum proteins was tested on over 250 patients, some of whom had Alzheimer’s, and others of whom had mild cognitive problems. The test was 91% accurate in terms of predicting those with mild memory problems who would develop Alzheimer’s in 5 years.

And finally from Alabama - While garlic has long been touted for its health benefits, researchers have identified how it works. Mixing red blood cells with garlic released hydrogen sulfide. This compound acts as an antioxidant, causing blood vessels to relax and increasing blood flow.

Information on Pre-eclampsia from Pregenesys

http://www.pregenesys.com/

In Israel, any woman in trimester 1 can get this blood test (weeks 7-13) and be evaluated for risk of pre-eclampsia. If the risk appears elevated, she returns to verify her risk, and if it is indeed elevated, DT can help the doctor determine the required level of monitoring and treatment.

Preeclampsia is a disorder that occurs only during pregnancy and affects both the mother and the unborn baby. Affecting at least 5 percent of all pregnancies, it is a rapidly progressive condition characterized by high blood pressure, swelling and protein in the urine. Sudden weight gain, headaches and changes in vision are important symptoms; however,some women with rapidly advancing disease report few symptoms.
