Abstract

Hypertension in pregnancy is considered a systolic blood pressure of 140 or above, a diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg, or both. In Ethiopia, 10% of maternal deaths are brought on by pregnancy-induced hypertension. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and associated factors of pregnancy-induced hypertension among women receiving antenatal care in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
