Application of a first‐trimester prediction model for pre‐eclampsia based on uterine arteries and maternal history in high‐risk pregnancies

To assess the value of a prediction model for pre‐eclampsia (PE) in the first trimester (Ultrasound Obstet Gynecol 2007;30:742–794) for the prediction of late (>34 weeks) and early (≤34 weeks) PE in a high‐risk population.
