PreEclapmsia (PE) is a pregnancy condition characterized by hypertension occurring after 20 weeks of pregnancy together with proteinurea. PE if not diagnosed and treated early increases the chances of pre-term labour and related complications. Apart from clinical examination, pre-eclampsia screening includes certain blood marker tests performed to screen the patient for the risk of PE. The risk is assessed using a software dependent statistical analysis of risk score done using Foetal Medicine Foundation(FMF) approved assays. For better reliability of results, it is advised to carry out analysis between 11 and 13 weeks.
