The aim of the study was the evaluation of number and morphologic parameters of blood platelets and sodium-proton platelet exchangers in pregnant women in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy, healthy (155) and with preeclampsia (40). Blood platelet number was significantly lower in patients with preeclampsia than in healthy subjects (195,000 vs 222,000). Mean platelet volume was significantly higher in patients with preeclampsia (9.5 fl vs 8.6 fl). The activity of Na+/H+ was slightly higher in pregnants with preeclampsia.
