Popis: Background: Doppler ultrasound has emerged as beneficial tool in the assessment of the fetal and placental circulation and in the prediction of adverse pregnancy outcome. Umbilical artery Doppler has proved helpful to supervise the growth restricted fetuses and compromised vasculature as in hypertensive disorders high risk pregnancies. Objective of present study was to investigate the association between third-trimester uterine artery Doppler assessment and adverse obstetric outcome.Methods: This prospective study was done among 110 high risk pregnancies. Vessel like uterine artery, umbilical artery, middle cerebral artery and ductus venosus were studied in present study. Indices calculated: Peak systolic velocity, End diastolic velocity, Mean velocity, Systolic/diastolic ratio, Pulsatility index (PI) and resistance index (RI) of middle cerebral artery (MCA), Ductus venosus S/A ratio.Results: bilateral notch was present statistically significant (p3 in 22.7% and lower limit in 18.2% among cases of adverse perinatal outcome. MCA PI/UA PI ratio was
