Introduction: Preeclampsia-eclampsia has been one of the main cause of maternal morbidity-mortality in developing countries, affecting 10% of pregnancies. In Mexico, in the recent years it has been estimated at about 2 to 35 new cases per 100 pregnancies. Objective: To report the evolution and severity of blood pressure and proteinuria; and their repercussion on renal function after delivery, in patients who developed preeclampsia. Methods: It was a descriptive analysis of 24 preeclamptic women on clinical follow up until normalization of blood pressure. Results: We observed lower serum albumin, higher severity of 24 hrs proteinuria level and longer duration of hypertension in those women who presented with the highest levels in diastolic blood pressure at the beginning and end of the study.
