Variation in APPO prevalence suggests that many APPOs are partly preventable, although measurement differences explain some variation. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy account for about 14% of maternal deaths worldwide. APPOs are common and have major maternal, infant, health system, and societal consequences. APPOs include miscarriage, stillbirth, gestational diabetes, gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia, pre-term birth, fetal growth outcomes, and other maternal, delivery, neonatal, and postpartum outcomes.
