Evaluation of the clinical impact of the revised ISSHP and ACOG definitions on preeclampsia.

Background: In 2018/2013 both ISSHP and ACOG revised their original statements and postulated new criteria for preeclampsia with and without severe features. Most importantly, preeclampsia can now also be established in the absence of proteinuria when other specific symptoms are present.

Objective: What is the clinical impact of the use of three different new definitions for the diagnosis of preeclampsia?

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study of all pregnant women who gave birth in the Erasmus MC between 01 and 01-2014 and 01-01-2016.
