Background: Preeclampsia is a progressive multisystemic disease, currently it is an important cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality in Peru. However, we do not have tools that help us to identify pregnant women who may have negative outcomes. Objective: To evaluate the prediction capabilities of the Scale of Risk Factors for Preeclampsia Complications (EFRCP) and the fullPIERS (Pre-eclampsia Integrated Estimate of RiSk) scale for complications in pregnant women with a diagnosis of preeclampsia who are admitted to the obstetrics-gynecology service of a referral hospital, since October 2021 to December 2022. Materials and methods: Retrospective cohort design study, data from clinical records of patients diagnosed with preeclampsia were collected and both scales were applied (EFRCP and the fullPIERS scale). With these results, the sensitivity, specificity and AUC were estimated using different cut-off points, the best score was selected, the one with the greatest area under the curve (AUC). Differences between the scales were explored by comparing their AUC. Results: 367 pregnant women were included. The EFRCP presented 71% sensitivity, 73% specificity and AUC of 0.722 with a cut-off point of 3 points. While the fullPIERS scale obtained 76%, 84% and 0.804 respectively with the cut-off point of 0.75%. Conclusions: Both scales can be useful to identify pregnant women at risk of complications with different cut-off points from those defined internationally.
