An integrated model for the prediction of preeclampsia using maternal factors and uterine artery Doppler velocimetry in unselected low-risk women

The purpose of this study was to develop a predictive model for preeclampsia. This was a prospective screening study for preeclampsia using uterine artery Doppler ultrasound in unselected low-risk singleton pregnancies at community hospitals in the UK (n = 32,157). Logistic regression models were developed and their predictive ability assessed using the area under the receiver operator curve (AROC). Six hundred twelve (2.0%) women developed preeclampsia, and 144 (0.5%) required early delivery (
