Serum levels of uric acid may have a potential role in the management of immediate delivery or prolongation of pregnancy in severe preeclampsia.
2020
Objective: To investigate the biomarker(s) that could affect the decision for immediate or delayed delivery in severe preeclampsia.Methods: Data on serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), uric acid (UA) and platelet counts from 134 cases were collected and analysed.Results: Higher UA levels were seen in case with immediate delivery. Higher stillbirth was seen in cases with delayed delivery.Conclusion: UA levels could be a potential management biomarker for immediate or delayed delivery in severe preeclampsia. However, the higher risk of stillbirth must be considered in delayed delivery.Conclusion: UA levels could be a potential management biomarker for immediate or delayed delivery in severe preeclampsia. However, the higher risk of stillbirth must be considered in delayed delivery.
