Key Points

  • This study aims to evaluate the effect of advanced maternal age on laboratory markers in women with preeclampsia.
  • Cross-sectional analysis conducted at Osh Interregional Clinical Hospital in Kyrgyzstan.
  • 67 pregnant women categorized into severe preeclampsia, moderate preeclampsia, and normotensive controls.
  • Comparison of hematological, coagulation, and renal parameters between women aged < 35 and ≥ 35 years.
  • Women with severe preeclampsia aged < 35 years had hemoglobin levels of 112.15 g/L compared to 123 g/L in those ≥ 35 years (p < 0.05).
  • Prothrombin time was longer in < 35 years (13.59 s) compared to ≥ 35 years (12.73 s), with p < 0.05.
  • Fibrinogen levels were elevated in women aged < 35 years (4.9 g/L) versus ≥ 35 years (4.5 g/L, p < 0.05).

Abstract

Background and Aims Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal and fetal morbidity worldwide. Advanced maternal age is considered an important risk factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes. This study aimed to compare hematological, coagulation, and renal laboratory parameters between preeclamptic women aged 35 years: 123 g/L, p 35 years, p 35 years vs. 0.96 in 35 years, p < 0.05). Renal dysfunction was evident with increased serum creatinine levels and significant proteinuria ( p < 0.05). Conclusions Advanced maternal age significantly influences hematological and coagulation abnormalities in preeclampsia, contributing to a hypercoagulable state and renal impairment. Regular laboratory monitoring, early screening, and individualized management strategies are crucial to mitigating adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Clinical Significance This study highlights the critical role of laboratory markers in detecting and managing preeclampsia, particularly in older pregnant women who are at higher risk of severe complications. The findings emphasize the necessity of early intervention strategies, such as frequent monitoring of coagulation and renal function, to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality. Understanding the hematological and biochemical variations associated with advanced maternal age in preeclampsia allows clinicians to implement personalized treatment plans aimed at improving both maternal and neonatal outcomes. These results also support the inclusion of laboratory marker analysis in routine prenatal care, enhancing the prediction and prevention of severe preeclampsia‐related complications.
