Poor Pregnancy Results Can Be Related To Past Kidney Problems:

Pregnant women may be at the risk of preeclampsia who have had any past acute kidney injury which is a sudden onset of kidney damage and failure. The complications can be harsher due to biological and hormonal changes.

It can lead to the transformation of waste products in the blood, the disturbance of body fluids and it's said to have affected other body organs as well. It's most common among older adults but can make children and teens its the victim too. According to The News Medical, women who had suffered AKI were at a greater risk of catching the disease than the women who didn't. Women who had the disease, their babies were likely to be born earlier.

It was a straight out 37.6 weeks VS 39.2, and the babies could be born with a smaller size than an average infant. It was found out that the women who had the disease were most likely to give birth through a caesarean than the controls, here it was between 40% vs. 27% percent.

The researchers came to the conclusion that women with r-AKI were at a 2.4 times greater risk and 5.9 of preeclampsia. They were unable to determine the actual reason or theory behind it, but they did conjure up something which was the theory of small blood vessels that transform during kidney injury recovery to perform effectively in the pregnancy period.

Dr. Tangen says to Global Nation that kidneys go through major difficulties and changes throughout the pregnancy period and that might just determine whether there's a disease or not if the woman has suffered it or not. While there's a lot to be studied, and there is so much that hasn't been discovered and solved. The doctors and researcher have advised keeping the pregnant woman under constant monitoring, it would be the best precaution. Doctors also advise taking aspirin.
