Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To compare 25(OH)D level in patients with pre-eclampsia, eclampsia and normotensive pregnant women as well as to study the prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency among the 3 groups.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: Determination of Vitamin D by ELISA

Detailed Description

200 patients with pre-eclampsia, 100 with eclampsia and 200 normotensive pregnant controls attending Delivery/emergency department in Kasr Al Ainy hospital will be included in the study (from March 2019 till September 2019). 25(OH) D level will be measured for the three groups.

  • Preeclampsia is defined as systolic BP >140 and/or diastolic BP>90 on two occasions, 4 hours apart in pregnant females>20 weeks, plus proteinuria >/= 1+ urine dipstick protein.

  • Eclampsia defined as tonic-clonic seizures in women with pre-eclampsia.

  • Controls are normotensive pregnant females with no proteinuria and no other medical disorders.

  • The determination of 25(OH) D is based on a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) using the 25(OH)D3/D2 ELISA system (ORGENTIC DIAGNOSTIKA GmbH, Germany)

Inclusion criteria:

Age 20-35 years Gestational age 30-40 weeks

Exclsion criteria:

Twin pregnancy Other medical conditions during prrgnancy Drugs that influence Vit D levels eg.antiepileptics and antituberculous treatment.
