Objectives
The objective of the present study was to analyse the use of 100 g aspirin dose as prevention method for preeclampsia in high risk pregnant patients.
Methods
A retrospective cohort study was performed in high risk pregnant patients with a blood pressure protocol, and the use of 100 mg of aspirin vs. its non-use was evaluated in the incidence of PREEC. Estimations between the two groups were performed with and without variable adjustment by means of binary logistic regression models.
Results
633 high risk pregnant patients were evaluated. The average age was 30±7 years old, and 25±8 weeks of pregnancy. 281 women (44.3 %) within this group received aspirin.
The total prevalence of PREEC in our sample was 151 pregnant women (23.8 %).
Pregnant patients under the aspirin treatment developed less PREEC events (19.2% vs 27.5%, p=0.019); with OR not adjusted 0.62 (IC95% 0.43-0.91 p= 0.017). The risk was similar when it was adjusted by age, preeclampsia history, diabetes mellitus and chronic high blood pressure. (OR adjusted 0.63 IC95% 0.43-0.92 p= 0.017).
Conclusions
The use of 100 mg of aspirin a day before the 20th week of pregnancy in high risk pregnant patients decreased the risk of developing PREEC, regardless the age and risk factors.
