A method of regulating a preeclamptic/eclamptic patient's sodium/potassium ATPase activity includes the administration of digoxin immune Fab (ovine). Digoxin immune Fab (ovine) binds with the endogenous digitalis-like factor to prevent it from interfering with the functioning of the sodium/potassium ATPase, thereby allowing the patient's intracellular sodium and calcium to return to a more normal level. A method of controlling preeclampsia is also disclosed that includes the steps of providing a supply of digoxin immune Fab (ovine), calculating an appropriate dosage of the digoxin immune Fab (ovine) based on a patient's weight and using an assumed endogenous digitalis-like factor level, administering the appropriate dosage as an intravenous bolus, and repeating the administration of the appropriate dosage on a fixed schedule.

L'invention concerne une méthode de régulation de l'activité ATPase sodium/potassium d'un patient prééclamptique/éclamptique, consistant à administrer un fragment Fab immune de digoxine (ovin). Le fragment Fab immune de digoxine (ovin) se fixe au facteur digitalique endogène afin d'empêcher celui-ci d'intervenir dans le fonctionnement de l'ATPase sodium/potassium, permettant ainsi au sodium et au calcium intracellulaires du patient de revenir à un niveau plus normal. L'invention concerne également une méthode de traitement de la prééclampsie, consistant à utiliser un fragment Fab immune de digoxine (ovin), à calculer un dosage approprié du fragment Fab immune de digoxine (ovin) en fonction du poids du patient et à utiliser un niveau de facteur digitalique endogène estimé, à administrer le dosage approprié comme bol intraveineux, et à répéter l'administration du dosage approprié selon une programmation fixe.
