abstract: The General Practitioner has a role in monitoring women with hypertension during pregnancy, for all women presenting with pre-existing chronic hypertension, a personal history of preeclampsia or with pregnancy-induced hypertension. It may be designated coordinator of monitoring during the first two quarters if he has the skills. Monitoring will then be performed in close coordination with other practitioners with a Personal Pregnancy Care-Plan notebook. Other complications and, in particular, the occurrence of proteinuria, require immediate recourse to the gynaecologist-obstetrician who will become the monitoring coordinator. The coordination of the monitoring will be the responsibility of the gynaecologist-obstetrician from the 3rd trimester.
