AngioCHIC: Interest of sFlt1/PlGF Ratio at Obstetric Emergencies
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In patients with suspected placental vascular disease who do not require hospitalization, the use of the sFlt-1 (Soluble FMS like tyrosin-kinase-1)/PlGF (Placental Growth Factor)/ assay can most likely help teams to define the best possible management.

Detailed Description
Preeclampsia is a serious obstetric condition, affecting 2 to 5% of pregnancies and associated with maternal hypertension and renal dysfunction. It is a constant concern of obstetrical teams in the pre and post partum period. In case of diagnosis in the emergency unit, patients are usually hospitalized. However, in the case of a diagnosis of preeclampsia has been invalidated, but in presence of isolated or frustrated clinical functional signs, in the case of a history of placental vascular pathology, obstetric teams implement surveillance strategies that are binding on the patients.
The sFlt-1/ PlGF assay has a high negative predictive value for the coming week.
The use in clinical practice of these two biomarkers in the indication of negative prediction at one week could help teams in their management but the interest of this use needs to be evaluated.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Reconvening period in patients with an sFlt1 (Soluble FMS like tyrosin-kinase-1)/PlGF (Placental Growth Factor) ratio <38 (day) [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
At the end of pregnancy, calculation of the average time between the 1st consultation and the 1st reconvening in patients with an sFlt1/PlGF ratio <38, unknown during pregnancy, to determine if consultations could have been avoided.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- reconvening period in patients with an sFlt1/PlGF ratio between 38 and 85 (day) [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
rate of reconvening
- reconvening period in patients with an sFlt1/PlGF ratio superior to 85 (day) [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
rate of reconvening
- blood pressure (mmHg) [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
Blood pressure higher than 140/90 mm Hg
- number of patients with functional signs of hypertension [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
phosphenes, accouphens, headaches, epigastric bar, edema
- number of patient with abnormal vascular and renal blood tests [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
platelets, transaminase, uric acid, ionogram
- proteinuria (mg/mmol) [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
urine protein-creatinine (P/C) ratio, mg/mmol
- Intra Uterine growth restriction (IUGR) [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
estimate foetal weight < 10 percentile or < 5 percentile
- fetal echography [trough participation period, an average of 4 months]
umbilical and/or cerebral doppler
- term of delivery (weeks of gestation) [at birth]
Analysis of term delivery with stratification by sFlt-1/PlGF ratio
- fetal weight at birth (g) [at birth]
Analysis of fetal weight with stratification by sFlt-1/PlGF ratio
- number of hospitalized new born [at birth]
Analysis of number of hospitalized new born with stratification by sFlt-1/PlGF ratio
