    This schematic diagram outlines the pathophysiology of preeclampsia. It shows that predisposing factors like age, history of pre-eclampsia, and obesity combined with precipitating factors like a sedentary lifestyle and multiple pregnancies can lead to abnormal placentation. This is caused by trophoblasts failing to invade the uterine spiral arteries properly, resulting in reduced placental perfusion and the placenta attempting to increase blood flow. This ultimately leads to vasospasm, decreased kidney function, edema, and increased blood pressure - the hallmarks of preeclampsia.
