子癇(eclampsia)是妊娠晚期、臨產時、新產後發生的急性腦病,常出現抽搐昏迷癲癇發作),機制類似高血壓腦病。子癇多數在先兆子癇基礎上發作[1]。子癇前症是一種妊娠高血壓疾病英語Hypertensive disease of pregnancy,且常併發水腫蛋白尿或其他器官功能異常[2][3]。子癇可能會在分娩前、分娩中或分娩後發生。

子癇的發作是一種全身強直陣攣發作,約會持續一分鐘。在癲癇後可能會處於癲癇發作後狀態英語Postictal state或是昏迷。併發症有吸入性肺炎腦出血腎功能衰竭或是心搏停止子癇前症及子癇都可歸類為妊娠高血壓疾病[1]或妊娠高血壓綜合徵(妊高征)。

字源及歷史

英語:eclampsia源自希臘語ἐκλαμψίαeklampsía,意為閃電隱喻其短暫爆發的特性)。第一個有關子癇症狀的描述是在西元前五世紀的希波克拉底[4]

預防及治療方式

建議的預防方式如下:高風險者服用阿斯匹靈,若鈣質攝取量不足,使用鈣質補充劑,針對早期的高血壓給予藥物治療[5][6]。在懷孕期間運動也會有幫助[1]。若有子癇症狀,肌肉注射或靜脈注射硫酸鎂可改善症狀,一般來說是安全的[7][8],在已開發國家開發中國家都適用[7]。可能也需要設備來輔助呼吸,其他的治療包括高血壓藥物肼屈嗪以及用陰道分娩或是剖宮產方式緊急將胎兒生下[1]

流行病學,預後

產婦中約有5%會得到子癇前症,其中約28%(總數1.4%)會發子癇[9]。已開發國家因為醫療的改善,每2000名產婦約有1名會得到子癇[1]。妊娠高血壓是懷孕期最常見的死因之一[10]。2013年因妊娠高血壓死亡的人數為二萬九千人,較1990年的三萬七千人要少[11]。患有子癇的女性中,約有1%因此死亡[1]
