Physiologically, the use of a pharmacokinetically predictable loop-diuretic is a reasonable intervention to increase elimination of extra fluid accumulated secondary to preeclampsia.The purpose of this study is to assess if Torsemide reduces the incidence of persistent postpartum hypertension in preeclamptic women.

Primary Outcome

Persistent postpartum hypertension was defined as sustained systolic blood pressure ≥ 150 or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg by postpartum day 5 or at hospital discharge, whichever occurred first.
