[Association between the protein loss and the perinatal outcome in preeclamptic pregnant women].
Proteinuria is one of the two main criteria for the diagnosis of preeclampsia. But except an important diagnostic it is also an important prognostic factor of the maternal perinatal outcome. 544 pregnant women were enrolled in a prospective study between 1995 and 2005. Of all of them the protein loss was measured by a qualitative or quantitative assay. It was ascertained that the higher protein loss was associated with a lower fetal birth weight and lower 5 minute Apgar score no matter of the laboratory test type. These data suggest that the protein loss in preeclampsia could be used as a prognostic not only for the maternal, but also for the fetal perinatal outcome.
