Abstract

Aim: to study the incidence, predisposing factors, causes and outcomes of pregnancy-related acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods: The study included 305 pregnancies in 291 women with CKD stages 1-4 (mean age 29.4 [25.8; 32.9] years; the duration of CKD 12.0 [5.0, 21.0] years). During pregnancy and after childbirth diuresis, creatinine level, and GFR were studied. The KDIGO criteria were used to identify AKI. Results: AKI on CKD developed in 35 of 305 (11.5%) pregnancies in 34 (11.7%) of 291 women (one patient had AKI in each of two pregnancies). A total of 37 episodes of AKI were recorded. The incidence of AKI on CKD stage 1 was 1.0%, stage 2 - 4.3%, stage 3A - 46.9%, stage 3B - 50.0%, and stage 4 - 71.4% (p<0.001). The risk of AKI on CKD increased with arterial hypertension, nephrotic proteinuria, CKD 3-4 stage, anemia, preeclampsia, placental insufficiency, cesarean section. The main cause of AKI (67.6% cases) was preeclampsia. In the AKI group, compared to pregnancies without AKI, gestational age at delivery and percentile birth weight were less - 35.3 [32.6; 37.1] vs 38.3 [37.3; 39.6] weeks, p<0.001, and 29.8 [12.4; 51.5] vs 44.5 [21.1; 66.6], p=0.014, respectively. In the follow-up, 35.3% of patients who had AKI on CKD during pregnancy progressed to stage 5 CKD and started dialysis, compared with 2.3% in women without AKI (p<0.001). Conclusion: AKI on CKD often occurs during gestation and impact negatively on pregnancy outcomes for the mother and fetus.
