Abstract

Background: Pre-eclampsia is a life-threatening condition of pregnancy, especially in developing countries that
has many adverse effects on maternal and fetal conditions. Increasing women's awareness of pre-eclampsia is
recommended to promote hypertension control to prevent its serious complications. Aim: The current study intended to
investigate the effect of educational sessions for pre-eclamptic women on their pre-eclampsia knowledge. Design: A
quasi-experimental research design (one group pre & post-test). Subjects: A purposive sample of 96 pre-eclampsiadiagnosed
women. Setting: The study was carried out at the Antenatal Outpatient clinics in the New Obstetrics and
Gynecology Hospital, Mansoura, Egypt. Tools of data collection: Two tools were utilized; a Structured Interview
Schedule, and a Pre-eclampsia Knowledge Questionnaire. Results: The study revealed that there were highly statistically
significant improvements in the studied women's knowledge post-intervention in comparison with pre-intervention (p
<0.001). Conclusion: Implementing educational sessions for pre-eclamptic women is effective in improving their preeclampsia
knowledge. Recommendation: Implementing educational sessions about pre-eclampsia early in pregnancy
should be an integral part of the routine antenatal care provided to the affected women to enhance pre-eclampsia
management and prevent its complications.
