Brief Summary: There is no evidence that patients receiving magnesium sulfate before birth are required to maintain the drug for 24 hours Therefore the investigators will have a randomized clinical study in patients with severe preeclampsia who have been treated with impregnation of magnesium sulphate and at least eight hours have received the drug before birth If the patient agrees and signs the consent is randomized to 1-receive sulfate for 24 hours postpartum as usual or 2- not receiving the postpartum magnesium sulfate or other anticonvulsant drugs This study can be conducted in 12 maternity latin america
Detailed Description: The final treatment known for pre-eclampsia and eclampsia is the termination of pregnancy However to prevent eclampsia in patients with severe pre-eclampsia has been demonstrated the effectiveness of magnesium sulfate There are multiple studies that prove the effectiveness of magnesium sulfate to prevent eclampsia in patients with severe disorder of blood pressure during pregnancy These studies used the drug before birth and continue after birth Therefore the investigators can not conclude whether the administration just before pregnancy is sufficient to prevent seizure If the cure or definitive treatment of pre-eclampsia is the interruption did not seem necessary to justify the administration of drugs anti-eclampsia after birth Obvious post delivery management with magnesium sulfate arises from the large number of postpartum eclampsia reported in many studies It is unknown whether administration of magnesium sulfate for a minimum period before delivery requires even keep the drug post partum

In addition to magnesium sulfate postpartum is necessary to maintain urinary catheter to monitoring the removal of magnesium sulfate is usual to maintain the patient at all or almost all rest by monitoring sulfate and diuresis this prevents a proper relationship mother and babe and even prevents breastfeeding during that period and is also known increased risk of secondary thromboembolism due to prolonged rest in the postpartum caesarean sectionThus maintain magnesium sulfate for 24 hours carries a higher cost greater vigilance and some risks without known real effect

A randomized clinical study conducted by Belfort and colleagues and published in January 2003 where magnesium sulphate compared to nimodipine to prevent eclampsia in women with severe pre-eclampsia showed interesting outcome Such research analyzed 819 randomized patients in the nimodipine group and 831 in the magnesium sulfate group Magnesium sulphate was better than Nimodipine in preventing eclampsia Interestingly the greater effectiveness of sulfate appears to prevent all eclampsia postpartum 9 vs 0 and obviously was used before the termination of pregnancy however no difference compared with nimodipine in eclampsia before birth 12 vs 7

There are two possible reasons for the non-appearance of postpartum eclampsia 1- maintain postpartum magnesium sulfate 2- dose 12-13 grams before birth disruption are sufficient to prevent eclampsia

The MAGPIE study randomized 1335 postpartum patients unused sulphate before delivery using magnesium sulfate postpartum cesarean 696 women or placebo postpartum cesarean 639 women and found no significant difference in the amount of eclampsia Thus the use of magnesium sulfate for first time in the postpartum is not better to use a placebo If the investigators combine the findings of eclampsia postpartum Belfort study and MAGPIE study is logical to think that the success of the Belfort study in the postpartum is not for the use of magnesium sulfate post delivery and not only due to the termination of pregnancy because there are postpartum eclampsia in the nimodipine group

If the investigators consider unjustified use of magnesium sulfate postpartum when maintained at least 8 hours before delivery the investigators decided to make a non-inferiority randomized studyThe investigators assume that using or not using magnesium sulfate during the postpartum prevents similar amount of postpartum eclampsia if during pregnancy was used impregnation and at least 8 hours before birth

For all these reasons the investigators propose the following A randomized trial is necessary where all those patients who received magnesium sulfate for at least 8 hours before birth involves impregnation and maintenance 8 hours will be randomized to two groups of study 1- Continue magnesium sulfate for 24 hours and 2-not use magnesium sulfate or other anticonvulsant drug post delivery

This study is planned in 12 maternity latin america
