Doppler changes in pre-eclampsia

Abstract

To assess the role of color doppler, placental location in PIH. 100 cases of pre-eclampsia aged between 20-40 years, of primi 2 , multi 76 ,of 2nd trimester pts 24 , 3rd trimester 76pts were studied for a period of 2 years . Doppler analysis of UTA ,UMB A and MCA for S/D, PI ,& RI, absence or reversal of EDV in UMB A were evaluated and followed up results were correlated . Our results of REDV and AEDV , increased S/D ratio , increased PI ,RI indices were correlated with INDIAN & other studies relating to morbidity & mortality. Doppler study is the only non-invasive modality for the detection and follow up of pre-eclampsia cases to prevent mortality and morbidity.
