Design An institution-based exploratory qualitative study with a descriptive phenomenological study design Setting The present study was conducted in Shashemene referral hospital and Melka Oda general hospital from March 03 to May 18, 2021. Participants A total of 17 individual in-depth interviews (IDIs) were conducted with women who experienced and survived pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis using Atlas-ti software. Result The present study revealed that women\u2019s level of awareness on raised blood pressure and or convulsion occurring during pregnancy was poor. Barriers that limit pregnant women from getting treatment at the earliest point included misconception, lack of insight, failure to accept counseling from health care providers, low income, and influence from husbands. Discussions with the women in this study showed that these mothers were not counseled on danger signs during antenatal care check-ups. Almost all of the women were very concerned and frustrated due to their diagnosis. Conclusions Women\u2019s awareness of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia was poor. Improving awareness of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy and enhancing the quality of antenatal care is essential.<\/ns3:p>","DOI":"10.12688\/f1000research.129648.3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,7]],"date-time":"2025-04-07T05:05:18Z","timestamp":1744002318000},"page":"1464","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.12688\/f1000research.crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Lived experiences of women who survived from pre-eclampsia and eclampsia in public hospitals of Shashemene Town, Oromia Region, Ethiopia: a qualitative study."],"prefix":"10.12688","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8117-8323","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Negeso","family":"Gebeyehu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aman","family":"Urgessa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8214-1581","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel","family":"Yohannes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aster","family":"Yalew","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Muluneh","family":"Ahmed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Meron","family":"Admasu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2560","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e237-e260","DOI":"10.1097\/AOG.0000000000003891","article-title":"Gestational Hypertension and Preeclampsia: ACOG Practice Bulletin, Number 222.","volume":"135","year":"2020","journal-title":"Obstet.
