We present a brief review of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) guidelines provided by the Japan Society for Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy (JSSHP) in 2009. This review aims to compare the Japanese standards of diagnosis, treatment, and management of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy with those of other countries, as well as to present a resource for Japanese clinical studies or case reports published internationally.
