Question: What is HELLP syndrome?
Answer:
HELLP is an acronym for a syndrome of hemolysis, elevated liver function, and/or low platelets. HELLP syndrome is thought to be a subcategory of severe preeclampsia. Patients may or may not have other signs of preeclampsia. HELLP syndrome often has a rapidly accelerating downhill course. Most clinicians deliver infants expeditiously regardless of the gestational age.
