Abstract | ||||
Purpose: To assess the relation between serum creatinine level in pregnant women and correlation between its value and occurrence of preeclampsia. Methods: An 80 pregnant female were involved in the study. They were divided into 40 case group; pregnant females with risk factors of preeclampsia and 40 apparently healthy pregnant women as a control group. Serum creatinine was tested using auto-analyzer, using the commercially available kits. Results: Serum creatinine was significantly higher in women who developed preeclampsia later. Conclusion: In summary we found an association of serum creatinine and preeclampsia. we recommend to use serum creatinine test in screening in women who are at risk of having preeclampsia later in pregnancy. | ||||
