Question

Why there is low platelet count in hello syndrome in pre-eclampsia?

Answer 1

hey mate

here is your answer :-


HELLP syndrome, named for 3 features of the disease (hemolysis, elevated liver enzyme levels, and low platelet levels), is a life-threatening condition that can potentially complicate pregnancy. HELLP was once known as edema-proteinuria-hypertension gestosis type B in the early 20th century and was later renamed in 1982 by Louis Weinstein.

Although the idea is controversial, some propose that HELLP is a severe form of preeclampsia, which, in turn, is defined as gestational hypertension accompanied by proteinuria after the 20th week of gestation. Others believe that HELLP syndrome is an entity of its own. Although the cause of HELLP syndrome is unknown, certain risk factors, including a maternal age of older than 34 years, multiparity, and European descent, have been described




I hope it helps you
