Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Gynaecology - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: Hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy are the most common and serious medical disorder and constitute up to 2–10% of all pregnancies. Aims and Objectives: To study association of raised serum uric acid and serum creatinine recovery time in the patients having persistent Hypertension having antenatal hypertension at tertiary health care centre. Methodology: After approval from Institutional ethical committee this longitudinal study was carried out in the Department of OBGY in the patients with the known history of PIH, which were admitted or examined were studied in this; out of the all PIH patients, with written consent, 30 patients with Persisted Hypertension in puperium and 30 PIH patients returned to normal in puperium. All the patients were undergone serum uric acid and serum creatinine tests at admission and at 6th week. The statistical analysis was done by unpaired t-test, calculated by SPSS 18 version. Result: At the time of admission the Serum uric acid level (mg/dl) was comparable in both the groups i.e. 5.8 ± 2.78 and 6.1± 3.82 respectively (t=0.34, df=58,p>0.05) but at 6th week it was significantly higher in the persistant group i.e. 2.54 ± 1.98 and 7.43 ± 4.36 (t=5.59,df=58,p<0.0001). At the time of admission the Serum Creatnine level (mg/dl) was comparable in both the groups i.e. 1.34 ± 0.72 and 1.52 ±0.84 respectively (t=0.78, df=58, p>0.05) but at 6th week it was significantly higher in the persistant group i.e. 0.94 ± 0.35 and 2.92 ± 0.85 (t=21.79,df=58,p<0.0001). Conclusion: It can be concluded from our study that raised serum uric acid and creatnine were significantly associated with persistent hypertension in the puperium of the patients with previous history of PIH in ANC.
