39 Anaesthetists should anticipate an additional rise in BP at intubation in women with severe pre-eclampsia who are undergoing caesarean section under GA and take measures to avoid a speed that compromises maternal wellbeing, even when there are concerns about fetal wellbeing.

61 Conclusions In women with pre-eclampsia, inability to increase stoke index at the moment of delivery may suggest dysfunction of the left ventricle to adapt to volume load caused by delivery and prompts concern for the increased risk of pulmonary oedema.
