Patient's question:
I am eight months pregnant. I have recently been feeling a bit dizzy, so I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The results showed high blood pressure, and I am very worried about the safety of the baby. After all, it is already in the late stage of pregnancy, and I am particularly concerned. What should I do about high blood pressure in the late stage of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Reappearance of high blood pressure in the late stages of pregnancy is a common and most serious complication for pregnant women, which can lead to the death of the fetus and the mother. It should be given sufficient attention, and active treatment and prevention efforts must be carried out in coordination with the doctor. The dosage of medication should be adjusted according to the level of blood pressure. If the symptoms are unstable and blood pressure remains persistently high, hospitalization for treatment should be promptly arranged. The doctor will make accurate assessments and treatments based on the condition of the fetus.
