Pregnancy in women with chronic kidney disease is often accompanied by significant complications for the mother and baby. Risk is felt to increase with the degree of renal dysfunction as well as comorbid conditions like hypertension. This study will examine specific pregnancy outcomes in these women via a retrospective chart review to establish predictors of poor pregnancy outcomes.
