Preeclampsia- any midwives on here?

[Armadillo00]

Hi,

I am basically after what the numbers on what tests the hospital would look for in order to be concerned about preeclampsia.

I am only 29+2 but have been monitored weekly throughout this pregnancy from 20 weeks as had very severe PE first time around- however not until 39+5.

Went into triage today with what I was worried were labour pains and a bit of bleeding (never had contractions first time so nothing to compare to)- thankfully all fine as far as baby concerned.

BP has been sporadically high but not enough to medicate, have also had a trace of protein- so nothing concerning.

Urine creatinine concentration was 3.7 today, falling from 6.3 on Monday.
CRP was 15.
And I’m not sure what the other indications are.

Today BP was constantly high so I have now medicated and my protein was ++ rather than just a trace.

Bloods and urine sample were fine so was sent home to continue weekly monitoring at DAU. I still have a banging headache but think that’s more from the stressful day.

TLDR: what needs to be at concerning levels and that are these levels for them to be worried about the PE and therefore deliver?

Many thanks in advance for any insight. Pregnancy is terrifying and BH hur (for me anyway!)

Assuming you mean PCR? CRP is an infection marker.
Normal PCR (protein/creatinine ratio) is below 30.
Normal CRP (infection) is below 8.

Thank you for your reply.
Sorry I don’t know why I included the infection makers.. I think it’s because it wasn’t in range!
What is protein/creatinine ratio done as? Bloods or urine? Can’t seem to find that one.

PCR is urine. It’s the level of protein in your urine.

Oh yes, I see now, my apologies, I was getting confused as the PCR from today isn’t back, all I’ve got it the urine creatine concentration, which is falling. Would this be preeclampsia related?
