    Hypertension during pregnancy is a common issue and an important public health concern, addressed on both a social level and in our research context, which explores the relationship between serum uric acid levels and hypertensive disease in pregnancy due to its national and global relevance. Objective: To determine the relationship between serum uric acid levels and hypertensive disease in pregnancy at the Villa El Salvador Emergency Hospital, Lima, 2019. Methodology: This was a descriptive, quantitative, retrospective, observational, cross-sectional, and correlational study. Results: Out of 130 cases, 58 pregnant women had no hypertensive disease induced by pregnancy (NO EHE), 12 had (EHE), 51 had hypertensive disease without proteinuria (EHE SP), and 9 had severe hypertensive disease (EHE SEVERE). Serum uric acid values ranged between 1.6-8.0, with a mean of 4.1 ± 1.3. Conclusion: It was concluded that women with EHE have higher serum uric acid levels compared to normal values, with statistically significant differences demonstrated by ANOVA (F=25.983, p=0.000) and Chi-square (Chi2=53.4, p=0.000).
