Flow velocity waveforms in uterine and umbilical arteries during the angiotensin II sensitivity test.

Abstract:

:The angiotensin II sensitivity test has been used to predict the development of hypertension during pregnancy. We investigated the systolic/diastolic ratios of flow velocity waveforms in the uterine and umbilical arteries by means of a color Doppler system in 15 healthy women at 24 to 26 weeks' gestation. A significant increase (p less than 0.001) was observed in the systolic/diastolic ratio in the uterine artery, which was unaffected by the location of the placenta. In five women a differential effect of angiotensin II on the systemic diastolic blood pressure and on the systolic/diastolic was observed: the uterine circulation appeared to have a slower response and a faster recovery than the diastolic blood pressure. No changes in the systolic/diastolic ratio in the umbilical artery were observed.
