Abstract

Objectives: To construct gestational age (GA)‐based reference ranges for the uterine artery (UtA) mean pulsatility index (PI) at 11–41 weeks of pregnancy. Methods: A prospective cross‐sectional observational study was carried out of 20 consecutive singleton pregnancies for each completed gestational week at 11–41 weeks. UtAs were examined by color and pulsed Doppler imaging, and the mean PI, as well as the presence or absence of a bilateral protodiastolic notch, were recorded. Polynomials were fitted by means of least‐square regression to estimate the relationship between the mean UtA‐PI and GA. Results: A total of 620 women were included. A second‐degree polynomial (Log e mean UtA‐PI = 1.39 − 0.012 × GA + GA 2 × 0.0000198, with GA measured in days), after a natural logarithmic transformation, was selected to model our data. There was a significant decrease in the mean UtA‐PI between 11 weeks (mean PI, 1.79; 95th centile, 2.70) and 34 weeks (mean PI, 0.70; 95th centile, 0.99). It then became more stable up until 41 weeks (mean PI, 0.65; 95th centile, 0.89). Conclusions: The mean UtA‐PI shows a progressive decrease until the late stages of pregnancy. Reference ranges for mean UtA‐PI may have clinical value in screening for placenta‐associated diseases in the early stages of pregnancy, and in evaluating patients with pregnancy‐induced hypertension and/or small‐for‐gestational age fetuses during the third trimester.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
