Pregnancy Clinical Trial
BACKGROUND: Pre-eclampsia complicates about 2% of pregnancies. It accounts for at least 50
000 maternal deaths per year worldwide and is the second most common cause of maternal death
in the developing world. Also, Pre-eclampsia is the commonest cause of iatrogenic
prematurity, It frequently coexists with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and
placental abruption, other important causes of adverse prenatal outcome.
There have been many studies investigating whether the disease can be prevented. In order to
achieve this, one needs to be able to identify firstly those women that are at highest risk
of the disease.
Early studies showed that impedance to flow in the uterine arteries decreases with gestation
in normal pregnancies, while in pregnancies with established pre-eclampsia or IUGR the
impedance is increased.
These observations led to a number of screening studies in the second trimester, which
assessed if it is possible to predict those pregnancies destined to have complications of
impaired placentation. These studies showed that women with increased impedance to uterine
artery blood flow have an increased risk of developing pre-eclampsia, and detection can be
further increased by using angiogenic factors (That are involved in the pathogenesis of Pre-
eclampsia and could be useful for early prediction of the disease: VEGF, PIGF, PP13, sFLT1)
in combination with uterine arteries Doppler study in the second trimester.
METHODS: In this study we would like to add uterine arteries Doppler to the early routine
detailed ultrasound examination (14-16 weeks), in 3000 women in Jerusalem. in addition we
would like to check angiogenic factors from the serum blood taken for the routine triple
test in these women (16-18 weeks).pregnancy outcome would be collected after labour from the
medical centers participating in this research.
