Pre-eclampsia (P-EP) is a hypertensive pregnancy (HPT-PG) condition that develops after 20 weeks of gestation, with or without proteinuria and is differentiated by vasospasm and vascular endothelial dysfunction. As a result, it is important to evaluate and predict P-EP using gestosis score (GT-S). We examined 229 pregnant patients at five prenatal visits and P-EP, using the Hypertensive Disease of Pregnancy (HDP) GT-S calculator app and a questionnaire that included 27 risk variables. We discovered a strong association between increased GT-S and the development of P-EP. As a result, GT-S is a reliable predictor of P-EP.
