<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p>Gestational hypertension and premature birth frequently and independently affect the pregnancy prognosis with potentially detrimental influence of the pregnancy evolution. Pregnancy-induced hypertension, spectrum and categories of the systemic disease: gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, eclamsia, Hellp syndrome, overlapping preeclampsia (PE) chronic arterial hypertension, are some of the complications that can occur over the pregnancy evolution. Annually, preeclampsia affects approximately 4 million pregnancies. According to ACOG, preeclampsia complicates the evolution of pregnancies in a 2-8% ratio. According to WHO and FIGO, premature birth occurs after 37 weeks of complete amenorrhea (AS) (or 259 days of amenorrhea). A spontaneous premature birth complicates about 5-18% of pregnancies.
