Resumen

VELOSO MARINO, Bárbara María et al. Risk factors associated with pregnancy induced hypertension. MEDISAN [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.8, pp.1129-1134. ISSN 1029-3019.

A study of 308 pregnant women with pregnancy induced hypertension (77 cases and 231 controls; the latter were supposedly healthy) was carried out from January to December, 2010 in order to determine some risk factors associated with the occurrence of this disorder. Research was performed at "José Martí Pérez" University Polyclinic from Santiago de Cuba. Odds ratio was estimated and chi square test was applied. Among the main results prevailed that biological risk factors were causally related, except for the precedent of diseases associated with pregnancy. Risk difference was also estimated in the exposed percentage to identify those factors, such as pregnancy hypertension family history, poor obstetrical conditions, and initial malnourished pregnancy that, when influencing on them, a major impact would be achieved.

Palabras clave : pregnancy; gestational hypertension; risk factors; primary health care.
