Patient's question:
My wife is pregnant, but she has preeclampsia. The doctor said she needs to be hospitalized for close observation. There are many tests that need to be done. I don't understand any of this. How much does the screening for preeclampsia cost?Doctor's answer:
Patients can examine facial and hand edema, upper abdominal pain, rapid weight gain, blurred vision, etc. If the patient has preeclampsia, the mother must relax and avoid negative emotions affecting herself to prevent elevated blood pressure from harming the infant. Rest in bed as much as possible, and many medications can be used to suppress symptoms. The fee varies, and it is best to consult locally. Usually, it ranges from about 200 yuan to 300 yuan. If only blood pressure and routine urine tests are conducted, 100 yuan is sufficient.
