Abstract:
Arterial hypotonia and pregnancy is one of the most problematic issues of the current obstetrics. The aim of the study was to investigate the progress of pregnancy and childbirth in women with arterial hypotonia, which was considered as the complication of the pregnancy. Control group consisted of healthy pregnant women of 20+/-1,3 years of age, while the main group consisted of remaining 36 pregnant women of up to 20 weeks of pregnancy with arterial hypotonia (age 24+/-2). State of intra cardiac and central haemodynamics was studied. It was proved that in the presence of this pathology hypodynamic syndrome of blood circulation is developed, which according to the clinical classification corresponds to the heart insufficiency.

Hypertension (High blood pressure)
Hypertension occurs when blood pressure readings consistently exceed the normal range. It is diagnosed when systolic blood pressure (the top number, indicating pressure while the heart beats)...
Fetal Circulation
Two umbilical arteries transport blood from the fetus to the placenta. At the placenta, the blood absorbs oxygen and nutrients while simultaneously eliminating waste products. This oxygen-enriched and nutrient-rich blood then returns to the fetus through one...

Normal blood pressure is 120/80 mm Hg. Elevated blood pressure is 120-129/under 80 mm Hg. Hypertension, warranting treatment at 130/80 mm Hg, is often asymptomatic and can lead to severe cardiovascular events, aneurysms, peripheral arterial disease, chronic renal disease, or cardiac...
