Abstract

Background: PROTEINURIA is the most important factor in dignosis and management of preeclamptic patients. The use of a method providing rapid diagnosis of preeclampsia is of prime importance and critical to immediate treatment.Objective: To measure the protein content of a 24-hour urine samples by determining protein/creatinine ratio in a random urine sample obtained from a pregnant woman suspected of preeclampsia.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study carried out in Kosar hospital, Qazvin, Iran, during 2003-2004. The subjects were 50 pregnant women with gestationl age³ 20 weeks and blood pressure³140/90. Following admission, the protein content of a 24-hour urine sample was measured and later, a random urine sample collected for determination of protein/creatinine ratio. Correlation coefficient between 24-hour PROTEINURIA and protein/creatinine ratio was further calculated. Findings: Among 50 pregnant women, 12 cases had a PROTEINURIA>300mg/day and 38 with PROTEINURIA<300mg/day. Regarding the results of our study, a protein/creatinine ratio of £0.25 was compatible with 24-hour PROTEINURIA<300mg and similarly, a protein/creatinine ratio of >0.25 with 24-hour PROTEINURIA>300mg (r=0/99, p<0/001). Sensitivity, specificity, and the positive/negative predictive value for this ratio was 98% with an accuracy of 96%.Conclusion: Determination of protein/creatinine ratio of a random urine sample could predict significant PROTEINURIA (>300mg/24h).
