The present investigation is a diagnostic study that revealed insufficiencies in the prophylactic treatment with hypertensive pregnant women or prone to suffer from this disease, for which reason we propose ourselves as a scientific problem. How to contribute to the prevention of arterial hypertension in pregnant women? The scientific novelty of the research lies in the study of arterial hypertension in pregnant women from the risks, changes they suffer during pregnancy, the social contexts where they develop, criteria that allow addressing this social problem from a preventive approach aimed at the education of the patients.
