Abstract

The incidence and prevalence of HDP in both AKS and CRS are high. Pre-eclampsia is the most common form of HDP in these states. There is a need for thorough screening for HDP in our antenatal clinics, identification of risk factors, and implementation of strategies to improve the outcomes of HDP in these states.
