Summary:A report is given on 100 juvenile primigravidae delivered in the period from 1965 to 1973. Course of pregnancy, delivery, postpartum period, rate of premature infants, and perinatal mortality are evaluated. EPH gestosis was observed in juvenile primigravidae at a rate approximately twice that encountered in the total number of all pregnant women. This group of patients is characteristic in that intensive care for pregnant women is required in both out-patient and in-patient treatment. In addition, intensive care for pregnant women has the target of minimising the increased rate of premature infants and the associated elevated perinatal mortality.
