espanolEl embarazo conlleva cambios fisiologicos y emocionales que pueden afectar a la dinamica familiar. Algunos aspectos psicosociales no favorecen la adaptacion al embarazo, pueden causar cambios emocionales y generar manifestaciones ansiosas y depresivas. Objetivo general. Conocer la relacion del embarazo de alto riesgo con la dinamica familiar y el subsistema conyugal. Material y metodo. Estudio observacional en 30 pacientes embarazadas con riesgo obstetrico alto que se encontraban viviendo con su pareja. Se evaluaron por medio del test APGAR familiar y el subsistema conyugal. Se utilizo estadistica descriptiva para variables demograficas y chi2 para asociacion. Resultados. De acuerdo con la tipologia familiar, 73,3 % nucleares, 66,7 % modernas, 83,3 % integradas, 100 % urbanas y 50 % son empleadas. El 93,3 % de las familias son funcionales (APGAR) y segun el subsistema familiar, 90 % fueron funcionales. No se encontro asociacion estadisticamente significativa entre riesgo obstetrico y APGAR familiar (p=0,121, IC 95 % 0,106-0,118). Tampoco se encontro asociacion estadisticamente significativa entre el riesgo obstetrico y el subsistema conyugal (p=0,475, IC 95 % 0,694-0,712). Conclusion. No se encontro relacion del embarazo de alto riesgo con la dinamica familiar ni con el subsistema conyugal. EnglishPregnancy leads to physiological and emotional changes that can affect family dynamics. Some psychosocial aspects do not favor the adaptation to pregnancy and can cause emotional changes, generating anxious and depressive manifestations. Course objective. To know the relation of the high risk pregnancy with the family dynamics and the marital subsystem. Material and method. Observational study in 30 pregnant patients with high obstetric risk who were living with their partner. They were evaluated by the family APGAR test and the marital subsystem. Descriptive statistics were used for demographic variables and chi2 for association. Results. According to the family typology, 73.3% nuclear, 66.7% modern, 83.3% integrated, 100% urban and 50% are employed. 93.3% of the families are functional (APGAR) and according to the family subsystem, 90% were functional. No significance was found between obstetric risk and family APGAR (p = 0.1.21, 95% CI 0.106-0.118). As between the obstetric risk and the marital subsystem, no significance was found, finding p = 0.475, 95% CI 0.694-0.712. Conclusion. No high-risk pregnancy relationship was found with family dynamics or with the marital subsystem
