Core Tip

Core Tip: In this observational study, we examined the role of uterine artery Doppler assessment in the first trimester between 11 weeks and 14 weeks of gestation in predicting the development of preeclampsia. Our findings suggest that abnormal uterine artery Doppler parameters at 11-14 weeks of gestation are significantly associated with an elevated risk of developing preeclampsia later in pregnancy. Using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, we demonstrate that, at specific cut-off values for the pulsatility index and resistive index, uterine artery Doppler shows good discriminatory power in predicting the future risk of preeclampsia.
