Indications for Inductions
Risks/benefits of medications
Risk of cesarean delivery
a. Any patient who meets the above definition of preeclampsia should be evaluated.
c. The need for evaluation should be determined by risk factors such as presence or
absence of preeclampsia in a past pregnancy, age, multiples, or underlying medical
problems. Furthermore, in order to determine acuity current data should be compared
with that obtained earlier in pregnancy or if available, prior to pregnancy.
Evaluation for R/O Preeclampsia
IV. Location of evaluation
a. A patient at any gestational age (>20 weeks) who may have severe PET
should be evaluated in triage on L&D
b. A patient with mild preeclampsia at >or= 39 weeks with a favorable cervix should be
admitted directly to L&D by their primary provider for induction without stopping in triage.
c. A patient who has extremely difficult circumstances which might make their outpatient
evaluation of PET incomplete may be evaluated in triage.
d. If none of the above apply and a patient is a suspect for mild preeclampsia we recommend
that the evaluation for preeclampsia is completed as an outpatient.
