Frequency of maternal high serum hs-C reactive protein level in pre-eclampsia patients.

Objective: To determine the frequency of high serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level in pre-eclampsia women. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Department Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Bahawalpur Medical Dental College, Bahawalpur. Period: October 2022 to February 2023. Material & Methods: A total 206 women aged between 20-35 years with singleton pregnancy, gestational age >20 weeks, any parity, were analyzed. High hs-CRP was defined as when above 7.0mg/L. The patient diagnosed she had systolic blood pressure ≥140mmHg, measured at two different intervals after 20 weeks pregnancy proteinuria (200 mg or more per 24-hour period) by laboratory test. noted. Results: In a females, mean 29.69±3.12 while 120 (58.3%) 18-30 years. parity 27.83±2.64 2.65±1.44 respectively. Frequency noted 135 (65.5%) females pre-eclampsia. It found that (p=0.686), (0.253) (p=0.927) not having statistically significant association hs-CRP. BMI have (p<0.001). Conclusion: maternal very among
