Stratification of pregnancy care based on risk of pre-eclampsia derived from uterine artery Doppler at 19-24  weeks' gestation

CONCLUSION: All pregnant women should have screening for PE at 20 and 36 weeks' gestation. The findings at 20 weeks can be used to identify the subgroups that require additional monitoring and reassessment at 28 and 32 weeks. The performance of screening by a combination of maternal factors and MoM values of UtA-PI and MAP at 19-24 weeks for delivery with PE at <28, <32 and <36 weeks' gestation is superior to that of screening by a combination of maternal factors and UtA-PI MoM or fixed cut-offs of UtA-PI or percentile cut-offs in UtA-PI.
