description This descriptive epidemiological study, with a quantitative approach, aimed to characterize the pregnant women with HELLP Syndrome regarding socio-demographic and obstetric data, and to ascertain the number of cases of this pathology. The population was constituted by 14 pregnant women diagnosed with HELLP Syndrome, confirmed by laboratory tests and clinical evaluation, and attended in an intensive care unit in the period January 2010 to December 2012. Data collection occurred in 2013, consulting the hospital records, using a form with socio-demographic and obstetric variables. The results evidenced that 64.3% of the pregnant women were aged over 26 years old; 92.9% were of mixed European, African and Indigenous ancestry; 64.3% did not undertake prenatal check-ups; and 78.6% had no history of complications in previous pregnancies. The results indicate data similar to that of other studies on the epidemiological profile of HELLP Syndrome, and serves as a warning regarding the shortage of information in the patient records.
