Objective: To measure the platelet count and complications in pre-eclampsia and eclampsia patients in pregnancy. Methods and Materials: This was a cross sectional observational study and conducted from 1st January 2018 to 30th June 2018 in Sheikh Sayera Khatun Medical College Hospital, Gopalgonj. Total 150 samples were taken from indoor of Sheikh Sayera Khatun Medical College Hospital, Gopalgonj. Purposive sampling technique was followed in this study. Patients who clinically present with features of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia without any chemical evidence of haemorrhegic menifestations were included in this study. Any maternal abnormalities in pregnancies (such as multiple pregnancy, pregnancy with heart diseases, GDM etc.) except pre-eclampsia and eclampsia and patients who were suffering from other coagulation disorder before pregnancy were excluded from the study. Results: average mean maternal age for the eclampsia group was 23.12±4.20 years and mean maternal age for the pre-eclampsia group was 28.24±5.86 years. Average mean gestational age for the eclampsia group was 33.50±2.58 weeks and average mean gestational age for the pre-eclampsia group was 37.50±3.89 weeks. 58 (70.73%) eclamptic patients and 18 (39.13%) pre-eclamptic patients were primigravida. 24 (29.27%) eclamptic patients and 28 (60.89%) pre-eclamptic patients were multigravida. p value of Mean maternal age, gestational age and gravida is < 0.001, which is significant. platelet count in > 200,000 / cu mm in eclampsia is (4.87%) and PET is 02 (4.35%), platelet count between 150,000 – 200,000 / cu mm in eclampsia is (13.41%) and PET is (30.43%). platelet count between 100,000 -150,000 / cu mm in eclampsia is 66 (80.49%) and PET is 30 (65.22%). Platelet count between 50,000 - 100,000/ cu mm in eclampsia is 01 (1.21%). Platelet count > 200,000 / cu mm present in 4 eclampsia is and 2 PET patients, out of which no patient developed any abnormal coagulation or any complications. Platelet count ...........
