This paper presents a novel method to predict hypertensive disorders in pregnancy using coherence analysis. Previ- ous studies suggest that there is inadequate secondary tro- phoblast invasion in hypertensive pregnancies implying that there are differences in the functional relationships between the maternal and fetal circulations. Magnitude squared co- herence (MSC) is a function with values between 0 and 1 that indicates how well two waveforms correspond to each other in the frequency domain. The results presented in this paper using the MSC of maternal and fetal blood flow ve- locity waveforms indicate that in complicated hypertensive pregnancies its value is lower than in non-hypertensive con- trols. With additional validation, this method has the poten- tial to provide an early test for hypertensive obstetric com- plications. |
