摘要:Preeclampsia is one of the most common complications of pregnancy and one of the leading causes of maternal and fetal mortalities. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of omega-3 in the prevention of preeclampsia in pregnant women with hyperlipidemia. Methods: This single-blind randomized clinical trial study was performed on mothers with hyperlipidemia during 2019-2021. The participants of this study were divided into two groups, the placebo receiving group and the omega-3 receiving group, each comprising 36 participants. Mothers in each groups were evaluated for clinical parameters. Obtained findings were analyzed using statistical methods. Results: The mean age of 72 participants was 32.7 ± 5.1 years. The difference in neonatal weight at birth was statistically significant (P = 0.01). There was a significant relationship between omega 3 consumption and 5-minutes Apgar score of (P <0.05). Complications observed in the omega-3 receiving group were significantly lower than the placebo group (58.3%: placebo and 22.2%: omega 3) (P = 0.02). The frequency of preeclampsia in the omega-3 receiving group was lower than the control group (placebo) and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05). Conclusion: Omega-3 has a beneficial effect on preeclampsia and fetal weight during pregnancy, and the prevalence of preeclampsia has decreased significantly in the omega-3 group.
