Pre-eclampsia remains one of the most serious complications of pregnancy, but early identification of women at higher risk allows for closer monitoring, timely intervention, and, in many cases, preventive treatment that significantly improves outcomes for both mother and baby. At Sai Dhwani Lab Center in Kopar Khairane, Dr. Madhura Deshmukh performs pre-eclampsia screening using uterine artery Doppler assessment combined with maternal clinical parameters, giving your obstetrician the information needed to identify risk early and plan appropriate care. Whether this is your first pregnancy or you have a history of hypertensive disorders in a previous pregnancy, Sai Dhwani provides accurate, clinically meaningful screening you and your doctor can rely on.
Understanding Pre-eclampsia Screening and How It Works
Pre-eclampsia screening is typically performed between 11 and 14 weeks of pregnancy, often alongside the NT scan, and focuses on assessing the blood flow through the uterine arteries — the vessels that supply the developing placenta. In pregnancies at risk of pre-eclampsia, the placenta often fails to embed as deeply into the uterine wall as it should, resulting in higher resistance to blood flow through the uterine arteries. This altered blood flow pattern can be detected on ultrasound well before any clinical symptoms of pre-eclampsia appear.
During the assessment, Dr. Madhura Deshmukh measures the pulsatility index of both uterine arteries using colour Doppler ultrasound. This measurement, combined with maternal factors such as blood pressure, body mass index, and obstetric history, and often alongside a maternal blood test (PAPP-A and PlGF where available), allows your obstetrician to calculate an individualized risk score for developing pre-eclampsia later in pregnancy.
Identifying this risk early is clinically significant — women found to be at high risk can often be started on low-dose aspirin before 16 weeks, a preventive measure that has been shown to meaningfully reduce the risk of early-onset pre-eclampsia when started at the right time.
When is Pre-eclampsia Screening Recommended / Is it Right for You
Dr. Madhura Deshmukh recommends pre-eclampsia screening if:
You are pregnant and between 11 and 14 weeks — the optimal window for first-trimester pre-eclampsia risk assessment
You had pre-eclampsia, gestational hypertension, or eclampsia in a previous pregnancy
You have chronic hypertension, diabetes, or kidney disease that increases your baseline risk of pre-eclampsia
You have a family history of pre-eclampsia, particularly in your mother or sister
This is your first pregnancy, which itself carries a higher baseline risk compared to subsequent pregnancies
You are carrying a multiple pregnancy (twins or more), which significantly increases pre-eclampsia risk
You have a BMI in the obese range, which is an established risk factor for pre-eclampsia
You conceived through IVF or other assisted reproductive technology
You have an autoimmune condition such as lupus or antiphospholipid syndrome
Your obstetrician has recommended first-trimester combined screening as part of your routine antenatal care
What Pre-eclampsia Screening Evaluates at Sai Dhwani Lab Center
Dr. Madhura Deshmukh performs a precise and standardized assessment during every pre-eclampsia screening at Sai Dhwani Lab Center. The following parameters are carefully evaluated:
Uterine Artery Doppler (Bilateral): Measurement of the pulsatility index in both the left and right uterine arteries using colour Doppler, the central ultrasound parameter in pre-eclampsia risk assessment
Notching Assessment: Evaluation for the presence of an early diastolic notch in the uterine artery waveform, an additional marker associated with increased resistance to placental blood flow
Mean Arterial Pressure Correlation: Assessment performed in correlation with maternal blood pressure readings, as part of the combined risk calculation
Placental Location & Appearance: Evaluation of placental position and early structural appearance as part of the overall first-trimester assessment
Combined Risk Calculation Input: Uterine artery Doppler findings are documented in the format required for integration with maternal factors and biochemical markers to generate an individualized risk score
Fetal Growth Parameters: Baseline first-trimester biometry recorded during the same assessment, supporting overall pregnancy dating and monitoring
Why Choose Sai Dhwani Lab Center for Pre-eclampsia Screening in Kopar Khairane?
Pre-eclampsia risk assessment depends on precise, technically accurate Doppler measurement — small inconsistencies in technique can meaningfully affect the calculated risk score. At Sai Dhwani Lab Center, this precision is central to every screening:
Precise Doppler Technique: Dr. Madhura Deshmukh (MBBS, DMRE) follows standardized uterine artery Doppler protocols to ensure accurate, reproducible pulsatility index measurements essential for reliable risk calculation
Optimal First-Trimester Timing: Screening is performed within the clinically validated 11–14 week window, ensuring your results are timed appropriately for preventive measures like aspirin therapy to be effective
Integrated with Routine NT Scan Visit: Pre-eclampsia screening can often be performed during the same visit as your NT scan, minimizing the number of appointments needed during early pregnancy
Clear, Actionable Reporting: Reports are structured to give your obstetrician exactly what is needed to calculate risk and make timely decisions about preventive treatment
Same-Day Reports: Reports are typically available the same day, ensuring no delay in starting preventive treatment where indicated

Frequently Asked Questions — Pre-eclampsia Screening in Kopar Khairane
Q1: When exactly should I get pre-eclampsia screening done?
Pre-eclampsia screening is most accurate when performed between 11 weeks and 13 weeks 6 days of pregnancy. This timing is important because it allows enough time for preventive treatment, such as low-dose aspirin, to be started before 16 weeks if you are found to be at high risk.
Q2: Does a high-risk result mean I will definitely develop pre-eclampsia?
No. A high-risk result means your calculated probability of developing pre-eclampsia is elevated compared to the general population — it is not a diagnosis. Many women identified as high-risk who receive appropriate preventive treatment and monitoring do not go on to develop pre-eclampsia.
Q3: Is uterine artery Doppler screening safe for my baby?
Yes, uterine artery Doppler uses standard ultrasound technology with no radiation and is considered completely safe for both mother and baby during pregnancy.
Q4: Do I need a blood test along with this ultrasound scan?
Combined first-trimester screening for pre-eclampsia typically includes both uterine artery Doppler and specific maternal blood markers (such as PAPP-A and PlGF) alongside clinical factors, for the most accurate risk calculation. Your obstetrician will advise whether blood testing is recommended alongside your ultrasound.
Q5: What happens if I am found to be at high risk for pre-eclampsia?
If your screening indicates high risk, Dr. Madhura Deshmukh will clearly document this in your report so your obstetrician can discuss preventive options with you, most commonly low-dose aspirin started before 16 weeks, along with a plan for closer blood pressure and fetal growth monitoring through the rest of your pregnancy.
