Hyperuricemia has received much attention and debate recently with regard to its utility as a marker for preeclamspia and as a predictor of adverse materno-fetal outcome. Objective: In this study our main goal is to detect the relationship between serum uric acid level and preeclampsia. Method: this cross sectional study was directed at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Ad-din Akij Medical College, Khulnaduring the period of June 2017 to May 2018 among selected 80 preeclamptic patients where 40 were mild (Group A) and 40 were severe (Group B) preeclamtic patients. Data was collected in preformed data collection sheet by interviewing the patients or their attendants during the study. Results: In this study group-1 52.02% pregnant women were in their first pregnancy, where as in group-2 it was 61%.Both group A and group B proteinuria and serum uric acid were significant , P value = 0.001.Conclusion: We can conclude that the high serum uric acid concentration correlates with the degree of severity of preeclampsia. Further study and analysis is needed for better outcome.
