Abstract

Relevance: Currently, there is an increase in the incidence of atopic dermatitis (AD), not only in the general population of the Republic of Kazakhstan but also among pregnant women. The course of blood pressure during pregnancy has several features and is also accompanied by negative consequences for both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Clinical manifestations of blood pressure adversely affect the entire gestation period, and the presence of itching increases the emotional lability of the pregnant woman. The lack of timely diagnosis and adequate management of blood pressure issues result in serious consequences that progress as infectious complications, eventually leading to septic complications.
The study aimed to review domestic and foreign experiences in treating atopic dermatitis during pregnancy.
Materials and methods: The literature review includes an analysis of foreign scientific publications from the scientific electronic databases Elsevier, PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, as well as research results presented in domestic publications over the past decade.
Results: The article discusses the issues of the pathogenesis of blood pressure, the influence of pregnancy on the dynamics of the process, and recommendations adopted in the international community for the treatment of blood pressure. Today, atopic dermatitis is one of the main allergic diseases of pregnant women, the clinical manifestations of which significantly worsen the course of the gestational period. The drugs used in this clinical practice to combat blood pressure have been little studied in the field of safe effects on the body of pregnant women, fetal organogenesis, and lactation period. There is a limited amount of research in this area. Ethical restrictions reduce the possibility of clinical trials of drugs on pregnant women, which does not fully assess the impact on the course of pregnancy and lactation.
Conclusion: Untreated, unresponsive to the therapy of blood pressure outside of gestation, or exacerbations of atopy during pregnancy are dangerous for the health of both mother and baby. When choosing a treatment strategy for AD, the attending physician should inform women of reproductive age about the potential impact of the prescribed therapy on pregnancy and fertility. BP therapy should be prescribed individually for each pregnant woman, taking into account extragenital features and anamnesis.
