[Predicting pregnancy-induced hypertension by radial arterial pulse waves]. 1989

K J Cong

This study was carried on several methods used in predicting of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH). Radial arterial pulse wave was found to give a predictive rate up to 85.7%, higher than that by mean arterial pressure in the second trimester of pregnancy or roll-over test. Thereafter, addition of cardio-parameters, peripheral resistance and pulse wave coefficient K value yielded more accurate predicting effect in 120 cases. By recognizing the subclinical phase and giving mothers to be advises on daily life we were able to decrease the incidence of PIH from 18.8% to 9.2%.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011225 Pre-Eclampsia A complication of PREGNANCY, characterized by a complex of symptoms including maternal HYPERTENSION and PROTEINURIA with or without pathological EDEMA. Symptoms may range between mild and severe. Pre-eclampsia usually occurs after the 20th week of gestation, but may develop before this time in the presence of trophoblastic disease.
