| Popis: | Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is associated with a high rate of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality, so its prediction has a tremendous impact on its management. Objectives: To evaluate the role of uterine artery Doppler indices in the prediction of pre-eclampsia during the first trimester of pregnancy. Patients and methods: During the early stages of their pregnancies, 60 expectant mothers received early pregnancy care at South Valley University Hospital between weeks 9 and 11. Assessments included clinical exams, medical history, lab tests, abdominal ultrasound, and uterine artery Doppler scans at 9, 11, and 18 weeks. Results: The mean age of patients was 24.8 ± 3.4 years, with a mean body mass index (BMI) of 24 ± 2.3 kg/m2. There were 13 patients (23.6%) with PE; out of them, 9 patients had a severe form of PE, and 42 patients (76.4%) had no PE. Doppler flow study of the uterine artery at 9–11 and 18 weeks showed statistically significant (p-value |
