Abstract

Preeclampsia is a major contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality and may be associated with several risk factors, particularly obesity and chronic hypertension. This study examined the relationship of obesity and chronic hypertension with preeclampsia The study used an observational analytic case control design and analyzed secondary data from medical records collected for January–December 2025. A total of 146 respondents, consisting of 73 cases and 73 controls, were selected using consecutive sampling. Obesity was classified as a body mass index (BMI) ≥27 kg/m², whereas chronic hypertension was identified based on a history of hypertension before pregnancy or prior to 20 weeks of gestation. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Obesity was significantly associated with preeclampsia (p=0.005; OR=3.018; 95% CI=1.451–6.276). Chronic hypertension was also significantly associated with preeclampsia (p<0.001; OR=57.054; 95% CI=12.957–251.226). In conclusion, obesity and chronic
hypertension were significantly associated with preeclampsia.
