The study evaluated whether fetoplacental assessment at a 19- to 23-week scan could be carried forward to contribute to the classification of preeclampsia and improve the detection of women and fetuses at risk of adverse outcomes associated with hypertension.
BACKGROUND: A definition of preeclampsia that incorporates the assessment of maternal, fetal, and uteroplacental status would optimize the identification of pregnancies at risk of complications at term gestational age. This definition would include carrying forward angiogenic test results from 35 to 36 weeks of gestation to term gestational age. Would this approach still be useful if testing is performed earlier or at a routine midgestation scan and the result is used to inform the diagnosis of preeclampsia that developed thereafter? OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate whether fetoplacental assessment at a 19- to 23-week scan could be carried forward to contribute to the classification of preeclampsia and improve the detection of women and fetuses at risk of adverse outcomes associated with hypertension. STUDY DESIGN: In this prospective cohort study of singleton pregnancies at 2 maternity hospitals in England (October 2011 to March 2020), women attending a routine hospital visit at 19 to 23 weeks of gestation underwent an assessment that included history, ultrasonographic estimated fetal weight, Doppler measurements of the pulsatility index in uterine arteries, and serum placental growth factor. Preeclampsia was defined according to various definitions: (1) traditional, based on new-onset proteinuria at >= 20 weeks of gestation; (2) 2013 American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists; (3) 2018 International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternal factor; (4) 2018 International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternal-fetal factor (death or growth restriction), based on ultrasound scans at the 19 0/7 to 23 6/7 week of gestation (an estimated fetal weight of <3rd percentile or estimated fetal weight between the 3rd and 10th percentiles with a uterine artery pulsatility index of >95th percentile); and (5) 2021 International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternal-fetal factor plus placental growth factor (with abnormal placental growth factor defined as an estimated fetal weight of <5th percentile for gestational age). The detection rates for outcomes of interest (ie, severe maternal hypertension, major maternal morbidity, perinatal mortality or major neonatal morbidity, neonatal intensive care unit admission >= 48 hours, and birthweight of <3rd percentile) ascertained by health record review were compared using the chisquare test. A P value of <.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: Among 40,241 singleton pregnancies, preeclampsia incidence varied by definition, from lows of 2.6% (traditional) and 3.0% (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists) to a high of 3.8% (International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternal-fetal factor plus placental growth factor). The International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternal-fetal factor plus placental growth factor definition (vs the traditional) best identified women who developed adverse outcomes: severe hypertension (detection rate: 70.6% vs 52.8%; P<.001), major maternal morbidity (detection rate: 100% vs 87.5%; P=.027), perinatal mortality or major morbidity (detection rate: 84.6% vs 69.5%; P=.004), neonatal intensive care unit admission >= 48 hours (detection rate: 76.6% vs 63.2%;, P=.0002), and birthweight of <3rd percentile (detection rate: 81.3% vs 61.9%; P<.0001]. The detection rates improved, going from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists definition to the International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternal-fetal factor plus placental growth factor definition, for severe hypertension (11.4%; P=.003), perinatal mortality or major morbidity (10.6%; P=.03), neonatal intensive care unit admission >= 48 hours (8.6%; P=.01), and birthweight of <3rd percentile (16.2%; P<.001). However, going from the International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternalfetal factor definition to the International Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy maternal-fetal factor plus placental growth factor definition, the detection of fetuses with a birthweight of <3rd percentile improved by 7.0% (P=.01), but no other improvement was seen for severe hypertension (1.7%; P=.33), major maternal morbidity (0%), perinatal mortality or major morbidity (4.0%; P=.20), and neonatal intensive care unit admission >= 48 hours (3.2%; P=.17). CONCLUSION: The criteria for uteroplacental dysfunction (including placental growth factor) from the 19- to 23-week assessment can be used in the assessment of women who are later suspected of having PE, to best identify pregnancies at risk of adverse outcomes.
