Insights

The Indonesian Prenatal Institute (IPI) model shows comparable performance to the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) model and outperforms the Maternal and Children Health Handbook (MCH-HB) model for predicting preeclampsia (PE). This finding aids in selecting effective PE screening tools.

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Maternal-Fetal Medicine
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Preeclampsia (PE) poses significant risks to maternal and fetal well-being.
  • Accurate prediction models are crucial for timely intervention and improved outcomes.
  • Existing models like FMF, MCH-HB, and IPI require comparative evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the predictive performance of three distinct models for preeclampsia (PE).
  • To evaluate the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF), Indonesian Maternal and Children Health Handbook (MCH-HB), and Indonesian Prenatal Institute (IPI) algorithms.
  • To assess model efficacy across different PE classifications (all, early-onset, preterm).

Main Methods:

  • Maternal risk factors, biophysical, and biochemical markers were collected at 11-14 weeks gestation.
  • Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was employed.
  • Detection rates (DR) at a 10% false-positive rate (FPR) were compared across models.

Main Results:

  • For all PE, IPI (66.9%) and FMF (62.9%) showed higher DR than MCH-HB (50.0%) at 10% FPR.
  • For early-onset PE, IPI (81.5%) and FMF (80.3%) outperformed MCH-HB (71.4%).
  • For preterm PE, IPI (66.9%) and FMF (70.2%) demonstrated superior DR compared to MCH-HB (38.5%).

Conclusions:

  • The IPI algorithm demonstrates predictive performance comparable to the FMF model.
  • The IPI model significantly outperforms the MCH-HB model for predicting all, early-onset, and preterm PE.
  • These findings support the utility of the IPI algorithm in PE screening protocols.
