Chronic hypertension and adverse pregnancy outcomes: a cohort study.

CONCLUSION: CH should be combined with other maternal characteristics and medical and obstetric history when calculating an individualised adjusted risk for adverse pregnancy complications. CH increases the risk for stillbirth, PE, SGA, GDM, iatrogenic PTB and elective CS and reduces the risk for LGA. PMID: 28436175 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
