Results and discussion: The prevalence of adolescent pregnancies is found in an age group of 10 to 19 years old, being the Latin countries with the highest number of cases, the factors associated with this type of problem are due to lack of knowledge regarding sexual education and prenatal controls, causing adolescents to become pregnant at an early age and the risk of presenting gestational hypertension, regarding the therapeutic approach, all countries agree that the use of magnesium sulfate is an adequate treatment for pregnant women, in addition to other medications. Its complications lead to preeclampsia. Nursing interventions are based on promotion and prevention, using the Nanda-Nic and Noc taxonomy.
