Prediction of preeclampsia by mean arterial pressure and waist circumference

Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the role of mean arterial pressure and antenatal waist circumference in early detection of preeclampsia. Methods: One hundred ninety (190) antenatal women were studied between 14 to 16 weeks of gestation for a period of one year. Mean arterial pressure was calculated by Burton's formula and waist circumference was measured. Mean arterial pressure of 90 mm Hg or more and waist circumference of 80 cm or more was taken as cut off. Results: Out of 190 women 30 women had mean arterial pressur… Show more

“…The finding is in concordance with the results obtained by Upadhyay and Dayal. 10 In the present study, MAP was found to be a more accurate predictor of prospective occurrence of preeclampsia than serum uric acid and salivary uric acid both. Cnossen et al found MAP to be a better indicator of PE than systolic or diastolic pressure alone.…”

“…When mid-trimester means arterial pressure is > 90 mm Hg, there is a significant increase in the frequency of proteinuria, hypertension, and the diagnosis of preeclampsia in the third trimester. Several blood pressure measurements including systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, mean arterial pressure, and 24-hour ambulatory pressure have been studied in early pregnancy as predictors of preeclampsia 64 .…”
