摘要：Thrombophilia among pregnant women is a condition that can cause complications in the prepartum and postpartum periods, having as a starting point some protein deficiencies of the body as well as genetic predispositions that can favour the onset of this condition. In pregnant women, thrombophilia can lead to an increased rate of maternal mortality due to the occurrence of venous or arterial thrombosis and other complications such as antiphospholipid antibody syndrome and hyperhomocysteinemia. Thrombophilia research was initiated in 1965, when Olav Egeberg highlighted that patients suffering from this condition developed symptoms of thromboembolism earlier than the rest of the population and even complications during pregnancy, such as spontaneous abortion, preeclampsia, delayed endometrial growth and HELLP syndrome. We aim to present the case of a patient who was diagnosed with this condition in the 28th week of pregnancy and was administered a treatment with injectable anticoagulants during the gestation period and after delivery. Research methods. Study of the literature, case study, measurement and assessment methods. To highlight the effects of exercise on the body of the investigated woman in the postpartum period, we used: anthropometric measurements, Flamingo balance test, crunches, sit-ups, long jump and Shuttle Run test. Results. After implementing the postpartum fitness programme in the weekly routine of the patient, we could notice a significant improvement of the results for all targeted fitness components. These improvements can be compared to the results of other studies having the same line of research and attesting that, in younger people, physical exercise can be an ally in the fight to reduce the risk of venous or arterial thrombosis. Conclusions. The postpartum fitness programme significantly contributed to decreasing the patient’s lumbar pain and improving her upper body mobility within a relatively short period of time (12 weeks).
