description Background and objective: Preeclampsia is a dangerous, progressive condition that is linked to maternal and neonatal death and morbidity. The purpose of this study was to determine the association between serum uric acid levels in preeclampsia with maternal and fetal outcomes. Method: A case-control study was conducted on 300 women delivered at the labour room of Duhok Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, from 1st of April 2021 to 1st of April 2022. The study participants were divided into two groups, pregnant women with preeclampsia and normotensive women. The serum uric acid levels of these women were estimated with the impact on fetal and mother outcomes. Results: There was a highly significant association between preeclamptic and normotensive women in relation to mean serum uric acid (5.862 ±1.416) mg/dL and (3.570 ±0.982) mg/dL respectively. A highly significant association was seen between uric acid test levels and maternal eclamptic fit, HELLP syndrome and admission to intensive care unit. A highly significant association also seen with newborn birth weight, APGAR scores and admission to neonatal intensive care unit. Conclusion: The current study demonstrates a significant raise in serum uric acid level in preeclamptic women and associated with adverse perinatal and maternal outcomes.
