Abstract

In a prospective study we found a hypertonic disease in 5.26% of the pregnant women. The course of pregnancy and delivery in women with chronic hypertension (22.1%) and in women with a pregnancy hypertension (53.3%) was without complications; delivery of eutrophic children was on term. Pregnant women with pre-eclampsia (19.7%) had an early birth of dystrophic, retarded children (below the 10th percentile). The acidosis morbidity (36.4%) and the frequency of Caesarean section (79.2%) were significantly increased compared to other hypertension types. More often we found pathological para-clinical changes. The perinatal mortality occurred in women with pre-eclampsia in 10.4%. It was not increased in all other hypertension types. The emphasis in prepartal monitoring should be on women suffering from pre-eclampsia.
