Hypothesis: Preeclampsia occurs most frequently when associated with increased platelet mean volume, which in the absence of this factor. Objectives: To determine the association between preeclampsia and increased platelet mean volume in parturients, Vicente Corral Moscoso Hospital, Cuenca, Ecuador, from May to July 2012. Method and Techniques: There will be a case-control study in the Department of Obstetrics Vicente Corral Moscoso Hospital, Cuenca, Ecuador, May-July 2012.

Results: We confirmed that the increase in platelet mean volume as a pbkp_redictor for preeclampsia, with statistical significance, providing internal and external validity.
