Severe preeclampsia is a condition characterized by systolic blood pressure exceeding 160 mmHg and diastolic pressure exceeding 110 mmHg, occurring after 20 weeks of gestation and accompanied by edema and proteinuria. One intervention used to save both mother and fetus is a cesarean section. This final nursing scientific paper analyzes the implementation of evidence-based practice, specifically warm foot soak therapy, for mothers with severe preeclampsia during the pre- and postpartum periods who are at risk for ineffective cerebral perfusion.
