  ABSTRACT: Objective: To study MgSO4 effect on fetal MCA and UA blood flow changes using Doppler ultrasound in cases of severe PET and eclampsia. Materials and Methods: A total of 40 patients with severe PET admitted to El-Shatby Maternity University Hospital, Alexandria (Egypt) were examined before and after administration of MgSO4 using Doppler study to measure fetal MCA and UA blood flow changes. Results: After administration of MgSO4, the mean RI of UA, PI of UA showed a statistically significant decrease (P The C/U (cerebroumblical) ratio increased after the treatment (P Conclusions: Infusion of MgSO4 significantly decreases the fetal RI, PI, SDR umbilical and increases the fetal RI, PI, SDR MCA and increases cerebroumblical ratio indices obtained by Doppler examinations.
