About this study

Official title: Levels of Blood Pressure in Adolescents With Preclampsia and Eclampsia: Study of Cases and Controls.

Levels of blood pressure in adolescents with preeclampsia and eclampsia:

Multicenter case-control study (Latin America). Maternities in Latin America: Two hospitals in Panama, one hospital in Mexico, one hospital in El Salvador, one hospital in Guatemala, two hospitals in Honduras, one hospital in Colombia, two hospitals in Peru and two hospitals in Bolivia.

The objective is to evaluate the basal levels of blood pressure during pregnancy and determine if there is any increase that is associated with the development of preeclampsia and eclampsia without reaching the known values of 140/90 mm Hg.

The sample is 1050: (350 Cases and 700 Controls).

Read the detailed description

Levels of blood pressure in adolescents with preeclampsia and eclampsia: cases and controls study.

It is unknown whether the blood pressure levels used for the diagnosis of preeclampsia have the same impact in adolescents as in older women, however for the diagnosis of preeclampsia and severe hypertension the same criteria of hypertension are used regardless of age maternal.

It is necessary to do research to determine the values of blood pressure with which adolescents convulse and also to validate if slight increases in baseline blood pressure in adolescents are associated with prediction of preeclampsia and eclampsia.

Unfortunately, 85% of teenage pregnancies occur in non-industrialized countries such as those in Latin America, and it is estimated that 25% of maternal deaths occur in adolescents

Cases: patients with pregnancy that starts before the age of 19 that develops preeclampsia (mild), severe preeclampsia, gestational hypertension and eclampsia, that is 24 and more weeks pregnant with prenatal control started before 20 weeks of pregnancy. Controls are patients with the same criteria but WITHOUT hypertension during this pregnancy.

The statistical analyzes are based on comparing blood pressure levels between the two groups, in addition blood pressure levels like 30/15 on the systolic and diastolic basal levels will be created and compared between the two groups, especially when it is not possible to have 140 / 90 mm Hg.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Levels of blood pressure

    Level of blood pressure during pregnancy or delivery

    Measured: after 24 weeks of gestactión to delivery.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. severe hypertension

    hypertension more thet 160 mmHg on systolic or 110 mmHg on diastolyc.

    Measured: after 24 weeks of gestactión to delivery.

  2. parity

    number of previous birth

    Measured: birth before actual pregancy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adolescent Pregnancy and Preeclampsia and Eclampsia, run by Complejo Hospitalario Dr. Arnulfo Arias Madrid at 8 sites in 6 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Panama, Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Guatemala and 1 more country. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Levels of blood pressure (time frame: after 24 weeks of gestactión to delivery.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Sep 2018.
