The article presents the analysis of the course of pregnancy in 150 women with hypertensive disorders and without them. The aim of the study was to assess the potential influence of short-term and long-term variability of systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) in pregnant women on the preeclampsia risk. The results of study show that in the absence of hypertension disorders, short-term and long-term BP variability stayed low and stable during all pregnancy. However, in case of hypertensive disorders, whether chronic or gestational, the BP variability, both short-term and long-term, was higher. Also, the high long-term variability of systolic arterial pressure in the second trimester was characteristic of women whose pregnancy was afterwards complicated with preeclampsia in the third trimester. The obtained results allow to suggest that high long-term variability of systolic BP in the second trimester could be used as a predictor of preeclampsia in pregnant women without initial hypertensive disorders.
Key words: short-term variability of arterial blood pressure, long-term variability of arterial blood pressure, preeclampsia, chronic hypertension.
