Assessment of risk for pre‐eclampsia at mid‐gestation to define subsequent care
All women should be offered assessment of risk for PE at 11-13 weeks, to help identify those requiring aspirin prophylaxis to reduce the rate of preterm PE, and at 35-37 weeks, to determine the optimal timing of birth to reduce the rate of term PE. Assessment of risk for PE at mid-gestation can be used to identify the subgroups that require additional monitoring at 24-35, 28-35 and 32-35 weeks' gestation. The best performance of screening, reflected in the SPR necessary to achieve a high detection rate, is achieved by a combination of maternal risk factors, MAP and UtA-PI. © 2025 The Author(s).
