    The key takeaways are that eclampsia is a severe form of preeclampsia that can cause seizures and be life-threatening for both mother and baby. Prenatal care is important for detecting risks that could lead to conditions like eclampsia.

    Eclampsia is the most severe form of gestational hypertension that can cause seizures in pregnant women. It poses risks of complications like cerebral hemorrhage, circulatory collapse, or renal failure for the mother, and risks like hypoxia, fetal acidosis, or premature separation of the placenta for the baby.

    Prenatal care is important for detecting complications during pregnancy that could develop into serious conditions like eclampsia. Regular checkups allow risks to be monitored and treated early if needed.
