Abstract
Objective To evaluate the association if any between serum CRP levels in first and early second trimester of pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomesMaterials and Methods The present study was carried out in 300 antenatal cases attending the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Swaroop Rani Nehru Hospital Kamla Nehru Hospital Motilal Nehru Medical College Allahabad over a period of one yearInclusion Criteria Pregnant women 20 Exclusion Criteria Multiple gestation previous HO PTL or mid trimester abortions endocrine disorder medical illnesses HIV infection and substance abuse Serum CReactive protein levels were tested and the participants were divided into 2 groups Group1 included all pregnant ladies with CRP level 5mgL Study Group and Group2 with CRP level 5mg Result Raised level of serum CRP had positive correlation with adverse pregnancy outcomes and effect of elevated CRP level was maximum on PPROM p value0002 preeclampsia p value0004 and low birth weight p value0002 Elevated CRP had no significant impact on still birth 006Conclusion Early detection of higher level of serum CRP in pregnancy can be used as predictor of inflammation and may help in early intervention and follow up of the patients to minimize adverse maternal and fetal complicationsKeywords C reactive protein Preterm labour Fetal growth restriction Preeclampsia Low birth weight Still births
