To compare peripheral pulse pressure waveforms in normal pregnancy, gestational hypertension (GH) and pre-eclampsia (PE).
Comparative study.
Tertiary referral teaching hospital.
Women with hypertensive disease in pregnancy and matched normal pregnant controls.
Women in the third trimester of pregnancy with newly developed PE (n= 27) or GH (n= 33) were studied by radial artery applanation tonometry. Values were compared with those for gestational age matched normal pregnant women (n= 39).
Augmentation Index.
Hypertension was of equal severity in PE and GH. Central augmentation pressure and augmentation index, indicating vasoconstriction, were mildly elevated in GH, but markedly elevated in PE.
Non-invasive applanation tonometry discriminates among normal pregnancy, GH and PE, and may be useful to predict PE.
比较正常妊娠、妊娠期高血压（GH）和子痫前期（PE）的外周脉压波形。
比较性研究。
三级转诊教学医院。
患有妊娠期高血压疾病的女性和匹配的正常妊娠对照组。
通过桡动脉压平式眼压测量法对妊娠晚期新发生PE（n = 27）或GH（n = 33）的女性进行研究。将这些值与孕周匹配的正常孕妇（n = 39）的值进行比较。
增强指数。
PE和GH的高血压严重程度相同。表明血管收缩的中心增强压和增强指数在GH中轻度升高，但在PE中显著升高。
非侵入性压平式眼压测量法可区分正常妊娠、GH和PE，可能有助于预测PE。
