This open non-randomized study had the objective to analyse the course of pregnancy and labor as well as their outcomes in 62 women with hypertensive disease (essential hypertention). The patients were allocated to two groups, one (group 1) comprising 32 the other (group 2, control) 30 women. All patients in group 1 underwent pregravid preparation and remained under observation throughout the pregnancy period in specialized cardiological departments. They were given treatment that included intake of antihypertensive drugs (methyldopa, long-acting nifedipin, metoprolol), desaggregant (dipyridamole, pentoxifllin), and metabolically active agent (vitamin E, folic acid, magnesium orotate, actovegin, cocarboxylase, and inosin). Gestosis developed in 25% of the patients in group 1 within 37 weeks and in 56.7% of the women (p < 0.05) in group 2 within 23-37 weeks of pregnancy. Circulatory disturbances in the mother-placenta-fetus system were recorded in 25% and 50% of the women in groups 1 and 2 respectively (p < 0.05), intrauterine fetal hypoxia in 18.8 and 50% (p < 0.05), chronic fetoplacental insufficiency in and fetal growth retardation syndrome in 12.5 and 40% (p < 0.05). In group 2, the perinatal mortality rate was 66.7% and perinatal losses amounted to 100.0% compared with their absence in group 1 (p < 0.05). Premature delivery occurred in 30% of the women in group 2 and was absent in group 1 (p < 0.05). In group 1, 9.4 of the newborn infants had low birth weight compared with 33.3% of the live full-term infants in group 2 (p < 0.05). Conjugated jaundice prevailed among the diseases affecting newborns in group 1 whereas intrauterine infections and posthypoxic encephalopathies were most common in group 2 It is concluded than combined therapy of hypertensive disease in women delayed the development of gestosis and made it possible to maintain pregnancy till normal outcome for both the mother and the child.
