Study group consisted of 63 women in the III trimester of pregnancy (gestational age 29-40 weeks). 32 subjects with PIH (investigated group) were compared to control group consisted of 30 healthy patients with uneventful course of gestation. Women with PIH had no proteinuria nor oedema, their mean blood pressure remained at the level of 161 +/- 16.7/98 +/- 12.8 mm Hg. Concentration of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in serum blood and urine were determined. It was stated that due to renal impairment observed during PIH, calcium urine excretion and calcium concentration in blood serum are decreased while serum inorganic phosphorus levels are increased. No changes in magnesium and ionised calcium homeostasis were seen in the course of PIH.
