Abstract


Pre-eclampsia remains a major cause of maternal and fetal ill-health. Platelet activation occurs in early pregnancy in women at risk
of developing pre-eclampsia. This disease seems to be linked to oxidative stress within the placenta and increased production of lipid peroxides.
Our purpose is to study the hemostatic functions of blood in
pre-eclampsia and the protective effect of vitamin E as an antioxidant in prevention of induced pre-eclampsia. METHODS: pre-eclampsia is induced in pregnant rats by intraperitoneal injection of nitric oxide

synthase inhibitor ( L-NAME) from the 141

day of pregnancy.% platelet

aggregation ,prothrombin time and fibrinogen level were estimated in normal pregnancy , pre-eclampsia and after treatment of these groups with vitamin E. RESULTS: Aggregation increased in pre-eclampsia which upon treatment with vitamin E returned to the normal pregnant level .CONCLUSION: vitamin E plays an important role in amelioration of the hypercoagulable state which occurs in pre-eclampsia.
