Okay but why do these changes happen in preeclampsia and eclampsia?

但为什么痫前期及痫患者会些病理变化呢？

If a woman with preeclampsia develops seizures, she is said to have eclampsia.

如果患痫前期的孕妇癫痫发作，则称为“痫”。

Seizures define the onset of eclampsia.

其中，癫痫发作是痫的标志。

HELLP syndrome develops in about 10 to 20% of women with severe preeclampsia or eclampsia.

10%-20%的严重痫前期或痫妇女可发展为HELLP综合征。

But...what I did not quite realise was that eclampsia is almost invariably fatal, with or without a Caesarian.

但道的是，痫几乎是绝对致命的，管是否采取剖腹产。

Because all of the problems of preeclampsia and eclampsia stem from placental dysfunction, the ultimate treatment is delivery of the fetus and placenta.

由于痫前期和痫的所有病理变化都起源于胎盘功能障碍，所以治疗的根本方法是使胎儿和胎盘娩体外。

Even if she were at risk from eclampsia, which she is NOT, a caesarean is a gamble which might kill either or both of them.

即使她真是痫，而她并是，剖腹产也非常冒险，可能危及母性命。
