The present description relates to a method for determining the risk of a pregnant woman developing a hypertensive disorder, more specifically gestational hyper-tension or late onset preeclampsia. The present description provides methods useful for determining risk that a pregnant individual will develop a hypertensive disorder or condition of pregnancy, such as gestational hypertension, early preec-lampsia, late preeclampsia and related disorders. Several useful combinations of biochemical markers and related clinical population studies are described herein. Additionally, it is proposed herein that certain sets of biochemical markers can be used to determine risk of multiple hypertensive disorders in a single screen. The biochemical markers are P1GF, Activin A and optionally P-Selectin.

La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de déterminer le risque qu'une femme enceinte développe un trouble de l'hypertension, plus spécifiquement une hypertension gestationnelle ou une pré-éclampsie à début tardif. La présente invention concerne des procédés utiles pour déterminer le risque qu'une femme enceinte développe un trouble de l'hypertension ou un trouble lié à sa grossesse, comme de l'hypertension gestationnelle, une pré-éclampsie précoce, une pré-éclampsie tardive ou des troubles associés. L'invention concerne plusieurs combinaisons utiles de marqueurs biochimiques et d'études cliniques associées. En outre, il est proposé dans l'invention que certains ensembles de marqueurs biochimiques puissent être utilisés afin de déterminer le risque de multiples troubles de l'hypertension sur un seul écran. Les marqueurs biochimiques sont le P1GF, l'Activine A et éventuellement la P-Sélectine.
