Doppler investigation of uteroplacental blood flow resistance in the second trimester: a screening study for pre‐eclampsia and intrauterine growth retardation
Abstract
Objective— To assess the screening properties of a mid‐trimester uteroplacental Doppler scan in a normal unselected population. Design— A cross‐sectional study measuring an averaged resistance index (AVRI) from four sites (left and right uterine and arcuate arteries) with continuous wave Doppler ultrasound. Setting— Routine booking ultrasound, King's College Hospital, London. Subjects— 977 women at 16–24 weeks gestation. Main outcome measures— Intrauterine death, birthweight, pregnancy‐induced hypertension (PIH), antepartum haemorrhage. Results— There was a 96.5% follow‐up. Pregnancies with high AVRI values had a higher prevalence of proteinuric hypertension, placental abruption, small‐forgestational‐age babies, and fetal loss. When AVRI was >95th centile, the overall risk of pregnancy complications was 67%, and the risk of a severe complication was 25%. However, the sensitivity of the test for these complications was only 13% and 21% respectively. The risk for an individual woman with a high AVRI of developing a complication was increased by up to 9.8 times. Conclusion— Although Doppler screening does detect a unifying defect leading to perinatal death, pre‐eclampsia, growth retardation and placental abruption, the predictive values do not yet justify its introduction as a routine test.

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.
