Lung ultrasound to check fluid overload in severe preeclampsia
Part of Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses lung ultrasound to see if women with severe preeclampsia have too much fluid in their lungs, which could help guide treatment. It may help decide who needs closer monitoring or faster delivery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether using a bedside ultrasound after childbirth can help doctors decide on better treatments for high blood pressure caused by preeclampsia. It may help reduce hospital stays and prevent readmissions.
This study is looking at women who develop high blood pressure or preeclampsia during pregnancy. Researchers will collect information to better understand these conditions, which may help improve care for future patients.
This study collects samples from pregnant people with preeclampsia (a serious pregnancy blood-pressure condition) and from healthy pregnancy controls. Researchers will study tiny particles (“exosomes”) to see how they differ and whether these signals could help explain or improve care for preeclampsia.
This study compares two ways of using ultrasound to look at the airway in women with severe preeclampsia who need a C-section under general anesthesia. It aims to find which technique is better, so doctors can prepare more safely for your breathing tube placement.
This study looks at people with preeclampsia during pregnancy and how their lung blood pressure and related symptoms change after delivery. It may help doctors better monitor and manage postpartum risks, especially involving the heart and lungs.
This study tests a finger sensor to see if it can help doctors decide when pregnant women with severe preeclampsia need more fluids. It compares results from healthy pregnant women and those with severe preeclampsia.
