The performance of screening at 19-24 weeks' gestation for PE with delivery at < 28, < 32 and < 36 weeks' gestation achieved by a combination of maternal demographic characteristics and medical history, UtA-PI and MAP is improved by the addition of serum PlGF and sFlt-1. The performance of screening for PE at ≥ 36 weeks' gestation is poor irrespective of the method of screening at 19-24 weeks. © 2021 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
