Objective: To evaluate the behavior of biochemical markers PAPP-A and β hCG with adverse pregnancy and perinatal outcomes. Methods: Prospective, comparative study in 35 pregnant women with singleton pregnancies between 11 and 13 weeks + 6 days and outcome of pregnancy known. Nuchal translucency, nasal bone, ductus venosus, rump length and biochemical markers (PAPP-A and β-hCG) combined screening was performed. The concentration of PAPP-A and β-hCG was determined and the results were expressed in MoM. Quantitative variables were expressed as mean and standard deviation (SD), and these percentages qualitative variables between the group of pregnant women with a normal perinatal maternal outcome (NPMO) and adverse (AMPO) with the U Mann-Whitney test were compared. Setting: Hospital “Dr. Adolfo Prince Lara”. Results: 71 % had a NPMO and 29 % had an AMPO. No differences between the groups in respect of maternal age, maternal weight, BMI, parity, blood pressure were found. PAPP-A MoM have expressed a higher value in pregnant having an AMPO (1.07 vs 1.43) were statistically significant, the values of β-HCG had higher values (0.60 vs 0.76) between the group with AMPO relative to NMPO group without reaching statistical significance. Conclusion: MoM values of PAPP-A differ in pregnant with AMPO than in those with normal results, but with higher values in the first opposite to that found in most of the studied publications, the same findings with β-hCG. Thus, it should look into these studies to verify the results found.
