Data analysis was done univariant and bivariate by using T dependent test. there were significant differences in copper levels in patients with severe preeclampsia and normal pregnancy, where the p value <0.05, and the mean test with 95% confidence level was between 0.767-1.023 at 0.895. This means there is a significant difference in copper levels in severe preeclampsia and normal pregnancy. There were significant differences in copper levels in patients with severe preeclampsia and normal pregnancy.Keywords: Copper, Preeclampsia.
