The primary target of this study was the number of days of gestation by which the pregnancy was prolonged after admission.
Other maternal outcomes included death, eclampsia, DIC, HELLP syndrome, pulmonary edema, placental abruption, and acute renal failure.
Fetal outcomes included death, respiratory distress syndrome, necrotizing enterocolitis, NICU admissions, and days spent in NICU.
Nicardipine and labetalol were used intravenously to maintain maternal blood pressure less than 150/110 mm Hg.
