Androgens Level in the Third Trimester of Pregnancy in Patients with Preeclampsia
Ahmed Ismail Ahmed Mohamed;
Abstract
Summary
P
reeclampsia is defined as the presence of a systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mm Hg or a diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mm Hg, on 2 occasions at least 4 hours apart in a previously normotensive patient. In addition to the blood pressure criteria, proteinuria of ≥ 0.3 grams in a 24-hour urine collection, a protein (mg/dl)/creatinine (mg/dl) ratio of 0.3 or higher, or a urine dipstick protein of 1+ is required to diagnose preeclampsia. Eclampsia is defined as seizures that cannot be attributable to other causes, in a woman with preeclampsia.
Two types are recognized: mild and severe preeclampsia. The severity of preeclampsia is assessed by the frequency and intensity of abnormalities
