Prediction of Chronic Kidney Disease Following Pre-eclampsia: Diagnosis and Early Care

Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-associated syndrome of variable severity, classically defined by the combination of hypertension and proteinuria in a previously non-hypertensive or proteinuric patient. These symptoms normally resolve within 2-3 months after delivery regardless of the severity of the pre-eclampsia.

Regardless of its definition, preeclampsia is associated with an increased risk of obstetric events and, for the mother, an increased risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD), hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular disease in the broad sense.

The relationship between preeclampsia and Chronic Kidney Disease is, however, complex and not fully understood.

Investigator proposes an interventional study to identify the diagnosis of Chronic Kidney Disease in patients who have developed an episode of Preeclampsia.
