Measurement of plasma cortisol is necessary in assessing the functional state of the adrenal cortex and the availability of other active steroids to the tissues during pregnancy. Coupled with clinical endocrine tests, these determinations can give the physician a good indication of the type of disorder present e.g. Addison's diseases, panhypopituitarism and adrenal hyperfunction. The method used for estimation of venous plasma cortisol when adequately controlled, is very sensitive and accurate.
测定血浆皮质醇对于评估肾上腺皮质的功能状态以及孕期其他活性类固醇对组织的可利用性是必要的。结合临床内分泌检查，这些测定能为医生很好地指示所存在疾病的类型，如艾迪生病、全垂体功能减退症和肾上腺功能亢进。当得到充分控制时，用于估计静脉血浆皮质醇的方法非常灵敏且准确。
