This study aims to explore the application value of urine microalbumin detection in the early diagnosis of renal damage in patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension,providing a more scientific basis for the clinical diagnosis and intervention of early renal damage.A total of 150 patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension who visited the authors'hospital from January 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the research subjects.All pregnant women underwent urine microalbumin and serum creatinine level tes-ting,and clinical characteristics and maternal outcomes were recorded.The correlation between urine microalbumin and other renal function indicators was also compared.Among the 150 patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension,95 cases(63.3%)showed positive results in urine microalbumin detection,suggesting early renal damage.Patients in the urine microalbumin-positive group had significantly higher levels of creatinine,average systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,and quantitative urine protein than the negative group(P<0.05).The results of urine microalbumin detection showed a moderate positive correlation with systolic blood pressure(r=0.421,P<0.01),indicating an increasing trend in systolic blood pressure with the rise in urine microalbumin detection results.There was a mild positive correlation between urine microalbumin detection results and diastolic blood pressure(r=0.315,P<0.01),suggesting a slight increase in diastolic blood pressure with higher urine microalbumin detection results.Fur-thermore,there was a moderate positive correlation between urine microalbumin detection results and the rate of premature delivery(r=0.529,P<0.01),implying an association between elevated urine microalbumin detection results and an increased incidence of premature delivery.Furthermore,patients in the positive group were more likely to experience complications such as premature delivery(P<0.01).Urine microalbumin detection has good application value in the early diagnosis of renal damage in patients with pregnancy-induced hypertension.A positive result may indicate a risk of renal damage in patients,necessitating close monitoring and intervention to reduce the occurrence of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes.
