Doppler Ultrasound for Fetal Middle Cerebral Arteryresistance Indexes in Preeclampsia Patients For Predicting Fetal Outcome
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Biotechnology and Biochemistry (IOSR-JBB - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction: Preeclampsia (PE) Is A Pregnancy Complication Characterized By High Blood Pressure, Proteinuria And Edema. It Threatens The Maternal And Fetus Life, It Is The First Cause Of Intrauterine Growth Retardation (IUGR), And Fetal Prematurity. Doppler Ultrasound (US) Has Been Considered As A Good Tool In Assess And Prediction Of PE.Objective: To Assess Doppler Studies Of Fetal Middle Cerebral Artery (MCA) Resistance Index (RI) In PE Patients To Demonstrate The Accuracy Of Resistance Index For Predicting Fetal Outcomes.Material And Methods: A Descriptive Cross Sectional Study On 100 Pregnant Women (70 With Preeclampsia And 30 With Normal Pregnancy) At >26 Gestation Weeks Of Fetal MCARI Was Performed Using Doppler US.Perinatal Outcomes Were Monitored And Statistically Analyzed.Results: The Data Was Discussed And Presented In Percentage Between Patients' Age, GA, Parity, Diastolic, Systolic And RI, Doppler Analysis And Its Correlated To Fetal Outcome Were Discussed. Then Statistically The Results Were Analyzed.Conclusions: Doppler Study Is The Non-Invasive Modality For The Detection & Follows Up Of PE To Prevent Mortality & Morbidity.RI-MCA Is A Sensitive Modality Of Assessing IUGR.
