ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
In this study we determined the outcome of subsequent pregnancies after termination of pregnancy for preeclampsia, with the purpose of presenting data useful for counselling these women on future pregnancies. STUDYDESIGN:
The cohort consisted of 131 women with a history of termination of pregnancy for preeclampsia.RESULTS:
Data of 79 pregnancies were available for analysis, including 13 women with chronic hypertension and 16 women with thrombophilia. There were seven miscarriages (8.8%) and 72 ongoing pregnancies. Low-dose aspirin was prescribed for 64 women (89%). The mean gestational age at delivery was 356/7 ± 4 weeks with a mean birth weight of 2571 ± 938 g. Overall recurrence rate for preeclampsia was 29% at a mean gestational age of 32 weeks. Thirty-eight women had an uncomplicated pregnancy (53%). The women with chronic hypertension had the highest recurrence rate of 38%. Neonatal mortality was 4%.CONCLUSION:
The course of subsequent pregnancies after mid-trimester termination for preeclampsia is uncomplicated in 53% with a recurrence rate for preeclampsia of 29%. The mean gestational age at delivery was 11 weeks later and birth weight 2000 g higher than in the index pregnancy.Palavras-chave
