简要总结
Currently there is no intervention to prevent persistent postpartum hypertension in preeclamptic women. Physiologically, the use of a pharmacokinetically predictable loop-diuretic is a reasonable intervention to increase elimination of extra fluid accumulated secondary to preeclampsia.The purpose of this study is to assess if Torsemide reduces the incidence of persistent postpartum hypertension in preeclamptic women.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants With Persistent Postpartum Hypertension Defined as Systolic Blood Pressure ≥ 150 and/or Diastolic Blood Pressure ≥ 100 mmHg
时间窗: 0-5 days after delivery
Persistent postpartum hypertension was defined as sustained systolic blood pressure ≥ 150 or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg by postpartum day 5 or at hospital discharge, whichever occurred first.
次要结局
- Number of Participants With Persistent Postpartum Hypertension (Systolic Blood Pressure ≥140 and/or Diastolic Blood Pressure ≥ 90 mmHg)(6 weeks after delivery)
- Change in Lower Extremity Edema(at the time of randomization (within 24 hours of delivery); at discharge (about 1-5 days after delivery))
- Number of Participants With Severe Postpartum Hypertension Requiring Acute Antihypertensives (Systolic Blood Pressure ≥160 and/or Diastolic Blood Pressure ≥ 110 mmHg)(0-6 weeks after delivery)
- Number of Participants Requiring Postpartum Readmission(0-6 weeks after delivery)
- Length of Hospital Stay After Delivery(0-5 days after delivery)
- Weight Change(at the time of randomization (within 24 hours of delivery); at discharge (about 1-5 days after delivery))
- Number of Participants With Side Effects of Therapy - Hypokalemia (Low Blood Potassium Levels)(0-5 days after delivery)
- Number of Participants With Side Effects of Therapy - Decreased Breast Milk(0-5 days after delivery)
- Number of Participants With Severe Composite Maternal Morbidity(0-6 weeks after delivery)
