UNASSIGNED: The objective of this study was to describe the epidemiological, clinical, therapeutic and prognostic aspects of the @entity3036 in the obstetrics and gynecology department at the University Teaching Hospital Yalgado Ouedraogo of Ouagadougou. It has been a descriptive crosssectional study over a period of 12 months from 1 April 2013 to 31 March 2014. The main criterion for inclusion in our sample was the occurrence of @entity410 in a pregnant more than 20 weeks of gestation or recently delivered with elevation of blood pressure and the presence of albumin in the urine. The @entity1 were followed from the onset of the crisis until hospital discharge. Data were collected and analyzed using Epi Info 3.5.1. The significance level of 5% was used for data comparison. We identified 203 cases of @entity3036 for 6063 deliveries that to say a frequency of 3.3%. The average age of @entity1 was 27.5 years [14-46]. In socio-demographic terms, @entity1 were housewives in 62.5% of cases, the average rate of the past-deliver number was 4.2 [0-11] and 47.7% of @entity1 were living as married. Clinically, they were referred in 72.4% of cases and were initially admitted into the service for elevation of blood pressure in 40.3% of cases. The mean gestational age was 31.5 weeks [23-41]; diastolic blood pressure exceeded 110 mmHg in 63.1% of cases. Therapeutically, all the @entity1 benefited from a treatment based in anticonvulsant by @entity2399 and antihypertensive therapy by @entity3360 , @entity1338 or @entity12833 . Maternal prognosis was marked by significant morbidity in 46 cases (22.6%) and mortality in 13 @entity1 that to say a fatality rate of 6.4%. The fetal one was dominated by a perinatal lethality in 31.5% of the cases. @entity3036 is a major cause of maternal and perinatal mortality in the University Teaching Hospital of Ouagadougou. The adoption of strategies for screening during antenatal consultations and early management should contribute to the reduction of the mortality in the mother and @entity1 couple in Burkina Faso.
