Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Objective: To find association between preeclampsia occurring during 2nd trimester of pregnancy and mean platelet volume.Methodology: To conduct this retrospective case-control study 200 pregnant female patients were recruited from February 2024 to June 2024.We included 140 were normotensive patients and 40 patients. with the criteria of preeclampsia. We obtained a second trimester (14 weeks to 26 weeks) complete blood count for all the patients for mean platelet volume observation.Results: The participants with raised MPV during second trimester of pregnancy had a higher incidence of Preeclampsia than the normal population with normal MPV, with a significant statistical value (P-value 0.0001).Conclusion: The results of our research indicate that patients exhibiting elevated mean platelet volume during the second trimester are more likely to develop preeclampsia later compared to those with normal mean platelet volume. Keywords: Preeclampsia, Platelet Parameters, Platelet Count, Mean Platelet Volume.
