Abstract
The present description relates to a method for determining the risk of a pregnant woman developing a hypertensive disorder, more specifically gestational hyper-tension or late onset preeclampsia. The present description provides methods useful for determining risk that a pregnant individual will develop a hypertensive disorder or condition of pregnancy, such as gestational hypertension, early preeclampsia, late preeclampsia and related disorders. Several useful combinations of biochemical markers and related clinical population studies are described herein. Additionally, it is proposed herein that certain sets of biochemical markers can be used to determine risk of multiple hypertensive disorders in a single screen. The biochemical markers are PlGF, Activin A and optionally P-Selectin.
