Abstract:Objective To discuss the value of arteriosclerosis detector utilized in the prediction and prevention of hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy(HDCP).Methods With the arteriosclerosis detector manufactured by Colin company in Japan, monitor the brachialankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) of 500 pregnant women and 100 fertile women.The 225 case of pregnant women with increased baPWV were randomly divided into intervention group(115 cases) and control group(110 cases).Separately compare the incidence of HDCP among the two groups with that of pregnant women with normal baPWV.Results The number of baPWV increased cases among pregnant women was more than fertile women and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).The incidence of HDCP was 7.83% in intervention group, 25.45% in control group and 5.82% among pregnant women with normal baPWV. The incidence of HDCP in intervention group was significantly reduced if compared with that of control group and the difference shows statistical significance(P<0.01).Conclusion We could apply the arteriosclerosis detector in the prediction of HDCP;The intervention treatment for pregnant women with increased baPWV can reduce the incidence of HDCP.
