Brief Summary:
Screening of Chronic Kidney Disease among pregnant women for early detection
Detailed Description:
Normal pregnancy associated with plasma volume expansion and hormonal changes lead to an increase in GFR of 40% to 65% in first and second trimester , with decrease in GFR of approximately 15% to 20% in the third trimester . Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is defined as abnormalities of kidney structure or function, present for a minimum of 3 months, with significant health implications .CKD classification is based on Cause, GFR category (G1-G5), and Albuminuria category (A1-A3), abbreviated as CGA . CKD during pregnancy is a major health concern ,affecting up to 3% of women of reproductive age in high-income countries, but estimated prevalence may be as much as 50% higher in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Pregnant women with CKD at high risk of adverse maternal and fetal outcome , including hypertension development or worsening ,Preeclampsia, eclampsia , Anemia , platelets abnormalities , worsening kidney function ,need for cesarean section ,Pregnancy loss ,stillbirth ,Preterm labor ,Intrauterine growth restriction . CKD if detected and treated early in its course, ESRD is often preventable, especially for high risk individuals. CKD is often unrecognizable and asymptomatic until it is in its later stages, when the chances of preventing kidney failure are limited. Therefore, in order to administer targeted therapeutic interventions . early identification and stratification of those at highest risk of CKD are urgently needed. Screening programs using state of the art point-of-care testing equipment with blood and urine samples can test for CKD both quickly and accurately
