Zusammenfassung:Objective: To evaluate the profile of hypertensive pregnant women who underwent prenatal care at a Family Health Center in the city of Sobral/CE in the period 2016/2017. Method: This is a descriptive and documentary analysis study. The charts of parturients attended in the referred CSF (2016 and 2017) were analyzed, analyzing the variables: maternal age, type of delivery, weight of the pregnant woman and cases of hypertension during pregnancy. Results: Fifty-five pregnant women had arterial hypertension and 112 were normotensive; maternal age ranged from 14 to 40 years, predominantly from 21 to 30 years old (58.9% in normotensive women and 80% in hypertensive women). The predominant type of delivery in hypertensive women was caesarean section (80%). Conclusion: Hypertension is still a major risk factor for the mother and fetus. It was concluded that there was no significant change in the percentage of hypertensive pregnant women when compared to other studies.
