Abstract EN
Preeclampsia (PE) is one of the severe complications of pregnancy that leads to fetal deterioration.
The aim was to survey the validity of fetal distress diagnostics in case of Doppler ultrasonic umbilical vein and arteries blood flow velocity investigation and ECG parameters analysis obtained from maternal abdominal signal before labor in preeclamptic patients.
Fetal noninvasive ECG and umbilical arterial and venous Doppler investigation were performed in 120 patients at 34–40 weeks of gestation.
And 30 of them had physiological gestation and were involved in Group I.
In Group II 52 pregnant women with mild-moderate PE were observed.
38 patients with severe PE were monitored in Group III.
The most considerable negative correlation was determined in pair Apgar score 1 versus T/QRS (R=-0.50; p<0.05).
So the increased T/QRS ratio was the most evident marker of fetal distress.
Fetal noninvasive ECG showed sensitivity of 96.6% and specificity of 98.4% and, therefore, was determined as more accurate method for fetal monitoring.
