Abstract

The study's goal is to better understand how uterine artery colour Doppler can be used to detect preeclampsia during a first trimester scan. Vital signs and general examination findings were recorded. Between 10 and 14 weeks, patients underwent a Doppler ultrasound examination. At the location where they appeared to cross the external iliac artery, both uterine arteries were located using colour Doppler. In both uterine arteries, the resistance index (RI), pulsatility index (PI) and existence or absence of diastolic notch were evaluated. The mean UtA‐PI values were significantly linearly associated to gestational age and decreased across the interval studied (R2 0.04, p<0.001). The frequency of bilateral notching also considerably reduced with gestational age. Effective early onset detection With maternal history and uterine artery doppler, PE can be detected However, with the addition of biochemical markers, the detection rate significantly rises in the first trimester of pregnancy. Improved first‐trimester PE prediction requires more accessible and affordable preeclampsia biochemical tests.
