ABSTRACT

Gestational hypertension is one disease that contributes to maternal mobility during pregnancy. Gestational hypertension is a condition when the blood pressure of pregnant women is above 140/90 mmHg without urinary protein. It is estimated that about 5–10% of pregnant women worldwide experience hypertension during pregnancy. This condition usually appears around 20 weeks of gestation, but can also appear earlier. In Indonesia, it is estimated that the prevalence of pregnant women who experience gestational hypertension ranges from 5 - 15%. Just like hypertension in general, gestational hypertension also often appears without symptoms. Therefore, it is often taken lightly by the community regarding this condition, even though at an advanced stage gestational hypertension can have an impact on both maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. The purpose of this activity is to increase the knowledge of pregnant women and families in North Lintau Buo about gestational hypertension. The method used is in the form of counseling and discussion. This activity generates knowledge of pregnant women about gestational hypertension. It is hoped that pregnant women and their families will be able to understand about gestational hypertension, the causes of gestational hypertension, signs and symptoms of gestational hypertension, further consequences of gestational hypertension, and prevention of gestational hypertension.
