[Clinico-neurological and encephalographic aspects of toxicosis in late pregnancy].
Clinico-neurologic and electroencephalographic (EEG) examinations of 149 women suffering from late gestosis, carried out during pregnancy and after labor, have revealed various neurologic syndromes (vegetovascular dystonia, narcoleptic and neuroendocrine syndromes, pyramidal insufficiency syndrome) in all of them; these syndromes correlated with the severity of late gestosis and EEG changes. The detected changes indicated the presence of the hypothalamic syndrome in women suffering from late gestosis, this syndrome being more marked in grave forms of gestosis. The detected neurologic symptoms and EEG changes persisted long after delivery (up to 7 years). The authors emphasize the necessity of timely adequate therapy of women suffering from gestosis, that should include tranquilizers, anticonvulsants, vasoactive and nootropic drugs.
