Type: article
Abstract: Introduction: Preeclampsia is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy, which usually manifests after 20 weeks of gestation with hypertension and proteinuria, with hypertension. Aim: To predict the adverse maternal outcome in pre eclampsia by using PIERS calculator. Methodology: This study is a prospective observational hospital-based investigation conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at SP Medical College and associated hospitals in Bikaner, commencing in 2023 and continuing for one year or until the desired sample size is reached. Result: The study found that younger women (72% aged 20-29) and those with significant symptoms (swelling 66.67%, headache 60%) were more likely to experience adverse outcomes, with strong correlations to urine albumin levels (56.67% with 2+) and SpO2 levels (43.33% with 94-97%), and a high predictive accuracy of 87.33% for the PIERS score in identifying adverse outcomes. Conclusion: The full PIERS calculator is a valuable tool for predicting adverse maternal outcomes in preeclampsia, enhancing timely care and improving maternal health in low-resource settings.
