Correlation of platelet parameters with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in severe preeclampsia: A case-control study
Background: Pre-eclampsia (PET) is a potentially devastating multi-systemic disorder resulting in the generation of oxidative stress. Platelet activation causes vasoconstriction and release of inflammatory cytokines, resulting in an intensified inflammatory response, endothelial damage, and coagulop...

Platelet activation causes vasoconstriction and release of inflammatory cytokines, resulting in an intensified inflammatory response, endothelial damage, and coagulopathy which culminate in adverse pregnancy outcomes. Aim: To compare the platelet parameters between preeclamptic and normotensive pregnant women and their relationship to adverse outcomes in women with pre-eclampsia. Materials and methods: This was a case-control study of platelet indices of 60 pre-eclamptic and 60 normotensive pregnant women recruited at 28 weeks and followed till delivery. A blood sample was collected at entry into the study and just before delivery. The sample was analyzed within 1 h of collection using the Mythic 18 hematological auto-analyzer. Data were analyzed using IBM-SPSS version 22. A P-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The mean platelet count, Platelet distribution width (PDW), plateletcrit were statistically significantly different between normotensive and severe preeclamptic participants (p= <0.001). Statistically significant differences were not present in any of the platelet parameters between mild and severe PET. The odds of developing eclampsia was low at higher mean platelet count and plateletcrit levels above 161.36 ± 73.74 × 109/L [p = 0.02, AOR = 0.27, 95% CI (0.08–0.88)] and 0.13 ± 0.05% [p = 0.001, AOR = 0.22, 95% CI (0.08–0.58)] respectively. Eclampsia was strongly associated with P-LCR (platelet-large cell ratio) above 23.15 ± 4.92% [p = 0.004, AOR = 11.00, 95%CI (1.48–89.02)]. Abruptio placentae had low odds at lower levels of mean plateletcrit. Pre-term birth was significantly lower at mean plateletcrit levels above 0.14 ± 0.05%; admission into neonatal intensive care unit was strongly associated with a mean PLC ratio above 22.73 ± 5.91%. Conclusion: This study demonstrated significant differences in platelet count, plateletcrit, platelet distribution width, and P-LCR between pre-eclamptic and normotensive women. Increase in P-LCR is a risk factor for eclampsia although the effect size is low.Benjamin S. UmezuluikeChidebe C. AnikweOluomachi C. NnachiBobbie C.A. IweChinedu C. IfemelummaIkechukwu B.O.
