Abstract

Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are one of the main causes of maternal mortality, especially in their most severe forms of presentation. This constitutes a serious public health problem, especially in developing countries as a result of the low use of prenatal care and obstetric care services, as well as the multidisciplinary approach and late admission to Intensive Care Units for comprehensive management. The objective of this review is: To present the best available medical evidence of comprehensive management for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in intensive care and thus reduce maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Methodology: This theoretical descriptive documentary review was based on the search, selection and analysis of scientific articles in the Medline, Scielo, Scopus and BVS databases, related to hypertensive diseases of pregnancy. Articles with 10 years of publication were selected, and the MeSH search terms used were: Hypertension, pregnancy, preeclampsia, eclampsia, encephalopathy. 44 articles were preselected and 25 of them were included regarding the topic. Results: Updated information about hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in intensive care was obtained through the review of 44 selected articles, of which 25 were included for analysis based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, which allowed achieving the proposed objective. Conclusions: This work is a summarized version of the recommendations and evidence for the care of hypertensive complications in pregnancy in intensive care, which is expected to be adopted by health professionals in charge of pregnancy care in the country and thus reduce morbidity and mortality associated with pregnancy. It also becomes evident that it is necessary to create subspecialties in critical obstetrics.
