Perinatal conditions in Eclampsia is a major concern of neonate injury and death in Developing countries like Bangladesh.The aim of our study was to find the perinatal outcome in eclampsia patients and also to find out preventable causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity which are related to eclampsia. This was a cross sectional observational study carried out in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Enam Medical College Hospital, Savar, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from June 2015 to July 2017. One hundred and Fifty five (155) patients were selected for the study. One hundred and Fifty five mothers have delivered 161 babies (6 sets of twins). Perinatal death (PND) which included stillbirth (SB) and early neonatal death (END) was 27.32%, out of them stillbirth was 15.52% and early neonatal death was 11.8O%. Eighty four (84.47%) babies were born healthy (live birth) in present study. Maternal and fetal conditions were assessed and its relation with perinatal outcome was analyzed. Among the live born neonates (n=161) 27.94% had jaundice, 30.88% had no complication. In the conclusion, we can say that Stillbirth is the main component of perinatal death and prematurity is an important cause of perinatal loss in eclampsia. So, early referral of eclampsia patients, early resuscitative measures and good neonatal care can improve perinatal outcome.
