Summary

Preeclampsia is a specific pregnancy disorder that complicates approximately 3-5% of all pregnancies. The effects on pregnant women vary from mild hypertension, severe hypertension / hypertensive crisis, eclampsia to hemolysis syndrome, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count (HELLP), while the impact of these abnormalities on the fetus also varies from preterm birth, stunted fetal growth (CHD) to fetal death.

The initial cause of preeclampsia is still unknown, recent developments explain the molecular mechanisms behind its manifestations and especially abnormal development, placental hypoxia, endothelial dysfunction.

Prenatal yoga (yoga for pregnancy) is a modification of classical yoga which has been adapted to the physical condition of pregnant women which is done with a more gentle and slow intensity. Rakhsani A, et al., (2012) suggested that the positive effects of yoga for pregnant women are reducing occure of hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes as well as cases of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of prenatal yoga on reducing preeclampsia. This study was an experimental study that used pre and post-test mechanisms (paired test) with Yoga exercise treatment.
