Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To assess the value of the early diastolic notch and color Doppler imaging of the uterine arteries at 24 weeks' gestation in a two-stage Doppler screening test for preeclampsia. METHODS:Two thousand fifty-eight unselected women had an initial screening study with continuous-wave Doppler at 18-22 weeks' gestation. Color Doppler imaging was used at 24 weeks' gestation to examine both uterine arteries in 273 women with initial abnormal results (high resistance index or diastolic notch). RESULTS:Three hundred twenty-nine women (16%) had abnormal flow velocity waveforms at the first stage and 104 (5.1%) at the second stage of Doppler screening. The presence of an early diastolic notch in the flow velocity waveform was significantly better than a high resistance index at predicting preeclampsia at both 20 and 24 weeks; the relative risk of developing significant preeclampsia for a woman with a persistent notch at 24 weeks was increased 68-fold. All women delivered before 34 weeks because of severe preeclampsia had abnormal waveforms at both stages of screening. CONCLUSION:An early diastolic notch in the flow velocity waveform is a better predictor of preeclampsia than are conventional impedance indices. Preeclampsia can be predicted effectively by two-stage Doppler screening.
