ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

Our purpose was to determine whether abnormal triple marker in the second trimester may be associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.

METHODS:

Between November 1996 and April 1998, we evaluated 1,158 pregnant women undergoing second trimester triple marker screening tests who delivered at our hospital. The pregnancy outcomes of 48 women with false positive screens were compared with 1,158 screen negative controls. The pregnancy outcomes were obtained from hospital delivery records.

RESULTS:

Women with abnormal triple marker showed increased risks for low birth weight(p<0.01). But there was no significant differences between study and control groups with respect to preterm labor, pregnancy induced hypertension, oligohydroamnios, premature rupture of membrane, placenta previa, abruptio placenta, fetal death in utero.

CONCLUSION:

Abnormal triple marker in the second trimester was associated with low birth weight.
