Rezumat: Pregnancy-induced hypertension is a common disease with important effects in maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The continuous study of its evolution in the population can help us to highlight new risk factors, the possible natural growth trend of the disease in pregnant women and the curative measures that can be taken. The purpose of this study is to observe the changes in the incidence of pregnancy-induced hypertension and its complications at a distance of 10 years. In order to achieve this goal, two study groups were compiled, including the births from 2007 and those from 2017 at the “Prof. Dr. Panait Sîrbu” Clinical Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology. The main findings of the study revealed an increasing trend of the incidence of pregnancy-induced hypertension, an apparent stagnation of the HELLP incidence, and a decrease in eclampsia.
