  Preeclampsia is a hypertensive, multi–system disorder of pregnancy that significantly contributes to maternal and fetal/neonatal morbidity and mortality. It is found that Mgnesium sulfate injection is associated with lower apgar score and poor muscle tone. There are some confounding factors as meconium stained, birth asphyxia . Thus to ascertain whether poor muscle tone and poor APGAR score is solely due to Magnesium or other reasons, we have done the study.
