Abstract
Background: Non-invasive Doppler flow velocimetry of the umbilical artery and cerebral circulation is utilized to measure fetal well-being. Doppler scans are more precise and might be a beneficial tool in predicting a negative perinatal outcomes in high-risk individuals, Aim and objectives: to evaluate the relation between the results of the uterine and fetal Doppler Indices of the umbilical and middle cerebral arteries in Women with Severe Eclampsia at or above 34 Weeks of Gestation and Neonatal Outcomes, Subjects and methods: This case-control research included 100 pregnant women who visited Al-Azhar University Hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department. They were split into two groups: (Group 1): enrolled 50 pregnant women with severe preeclampsia at or after 34 weeks of gestation, (Group 2): included 50 normal pregnant women at or after the 34th week of the gestation, from April 2021 to December 2021, Result: There is statistically significant difference between cases and controls regarding fetal complications as NICU admission, RDS, IUGR, IUFD and 5-minute APGAR score
