Background: Preeclampsia, the second leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality globally, affects 7%–10% of pregnancies and can lead to severe physiological complications (e.g., hypertension, organ damage) and long-term health risks (e.g., cardiovascular disease, cancer). While clinical research on preeclampsia is extensive, studies on patients' lived experiences remain limited.Aim: The aim of the literature review is to describe the experience of women with preeclampsia.Design: A descriptive literature review.Methods: Studies on the experience of women with preeclampsia were searched through PubMed/MEDLINE and CINAHL databases, and the keywords "pre-eclampsia", "women" and "experience*" were combined for screening. Finally,14 studies were included, thematic analysis was employed to extract data.Results:A total of 14 studies were included, and the experiences of women with preeclampsia were classified into three categories: physiological, psychological, and social. At the physiological level, acute symptoms (e.g., hypertension, headaches, blurred vision and edema ) and complications ( placental abruption and acute cerebrovascular events ); At the psychological level, fear at diagnosis (67.5% perceived life-threatening risks), trauma of mother-child separation (47.5%), and long-term psychological sequelae (e.g., PTSD); At the social level, there are inadequate medical support (poor communication, lack of follow-up), differences in cultural resources (e.g., Ghanaian women misunderstand "BP" as a result of stress) and racial/ethnic differences(African American women face higher cardiovascular mortality , ewish women of West Asian descent exhibit elevated cancer risks) and the need for social support(the medical system needs to be improved, more information and support can be obtained through Internet media, and prenatal education needs to be popularized ).Conclusion: Preeclampsia has multiple negative impacts on women and requires interdisciplinary care interventions, including enhanced physiological monitoring and early diagnosis, psychological support and health education, and improved health equity (e.g., culturally sensitive care, tool development in low-resource areas).
