title: [The new terminology and classification of hypertensive diseases in pregnancy].
abstract: For hypertensive disorders of pregnancy there are not only a lot of terms and trials for classification--but also the definition of hypertension as the leading sign is unclear. This explains the confusion around this meaning-full problem. The International Society for the Study of hypertension in Pregnancy (ISSHP) submitted proposals for a new terminology and classification of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. The members of the ISSHP's German Section and the German Study group for Hypertension in Pregnancy/Gestosis simplified this new ISSHP-proposal and adapted it to the peculiarities of German language. This new concept is presented and recommended for use in medical practice.
