Abstract:

Pre-pregnancy glomerular filtration rate, proteinuria, and blood pressure are usually more important in determining the risk of pregnancy in patients with chronic kidney disease, but some diseases may be exacerbated in pregnancy, or appear more liable to complications. This chapter considers immunoglobulin A nephropathy, systemic lupus erythematosus (which may also be associated with some manifestations in the infant), diabetic nephropathy, polycystic kidney disease, reflux nephropathy, single kidney, urological disorders, and angiomyolipomata.

Abstract:

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) during pregnancy and the puerperuim is a rare but potentially devastating complication of pregnancy. It is a condition that requires emergent medical attention and inclusion of multiple medical and or surgical specialists. Accurate diagnosis based on clinical exam and supported by neuroimaging techniques is essential. Medical management is the mainstay in most cases including post-hemorrhage blood product consideration, reversal agents if on anti-coagulation, blood pressure control, cerebral edema management, and treatment of seizures.

Abstract:

There is now experience of many thousands of pregnancies over more than 50 years of renal transplantation. Most such patients have some degree of hypertension and chronic kidney disease, and as expected their rates of complications are substantially higher than those of age-matched controls. However, rates of successful pregnancy are now high and pregnancy is no longer an unusual event in transplanted patients. As for other patients with chronic kidney disease, additional risks depend on pre-pregnancy glomerular filtration rate, proteinuria, and hypertension. Fertility returns rapidly after tr

Abstract:

Spinal cord injury is an uncommon complication of pregnancy. But women with spinal cord injuries should be counseled that successful pregnancy is possible. Pregnancies should be planned once the patient has reached optimal functional status. At the outset of pregnancy, complications should be planned for, and an overall functional and routine health maintenance assessment should be evaluated. Providers should pay particular attention to voiding and elimination management, prevention of urinary tract infection, respiratory complications, and autonomic dysreflexia. Urinary complications can be d

Abstract:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects a small but increasing minority of women becoming pregnant. It is associated with additional risks depending on pre-pregnancy glomerular filtration rate, proteinuria, and hypertension. Some drugs are contraindicated in pregnancy. These are powerful reasons for counselling all women of childbearing age about pregnancy in CKD. With minor CKD the main issue is moderately increased risk of pregnancy-associated hypertension and pre-eclampsia. More advanced CKD is associated with reduced fertility, progressively increased risk of pre-term delivery and a significa

This case illustrates a typical presentation of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) during pregnancy. The diagnostic criteria, complications, and treatment of the condition during pregnancy are explored. The major complication of IIH is visual loss. The International Headache Society 2013 criteria for idiopathic intracranial hypertension are: that the headache should remit after the CSF pressure is in the normal range, CSF pressure is greater than 250 mm, and the majority of patients have papilledema and other symptoms, which may include visual obscurations, pulsatile tinnitus, double v

Abstract:

Preeclampsia and other hypertensive diseases during pregnancy are common causes of maternal morbidity and increase the risk for adverse fetal outcomes. Women are monitored for changes in blood pressure throughout pregnancy and depending on gestational age, once such changes are noted providers may opt to move toward delivery. Blood pressure control and magnesium sulfate are the cornerstone of therapy as well as the key to preventing progression to eclampsia. A thorough understanding of this disease process is essential for anesthesiologists and other anesthesia providers to provide optimal and

Abstract:

Pregnant patients constitute less than 1% of intensive care unit admissions, and fewer than 1% of obstetric patients become critically ill. Critical illness may result from pregnancy-specific diseases, diseases that pregnancy predisposes to, or are co-incidental to pregnancy. The presence of a second patient—the foetus—may necessitate adjustments to therapeutic and supportive strategies. However, the foetus is generally robust despite maternal illness. The physiological changes of pregnancy are significant, but may delay the diagnosis of critical illness, requiring modifications to standard ma

This chapter reviews stroke in women, their third leading cause of death. Complications of pregnancy are associated with a higher risk of cerebrovascular disease beyond pregnancy. Women with preeclampsia have 2–10-fold risk of chronic hypertension. Fifty percent of women with gestational diabetes mellitus will develop type II DM within 5–10 years of their pregnancy. Women who have preeclampsia have twice the risk of stroke and a four-fold risk of high blood pressure. In women with atrial fibrillation over the age of 75, there is a higher risk of stroke than in men. The American Heart and Strok

Abstract:

The chapter discusses cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) in pregnancy. The signs and symptoms of the patient depend on which venous sinus is clotted. The clinical features may include headache, bilateral symptoms, hemorrhagic stroke, and seizures. The headaches are related to elevated intracranial pressure and can mimic those of idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Hematological changes that occur in pregnancy result in a hypercoagulable state; this normal physiology can predispose in certain situations to CVT. Other factors associated with an increase in the risk of clotting include infection,

Surveys show that a large proportion of pregnancies in female renal patients are unplanned. The effectiveness of a particular contraceptive method is dependent upon acceptability to the patient and compliance. Contraceptive decision-making needs to balance acceptability and safety wit

These include acute heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, acute aortic dissection, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, hypertensive encephalopathy, sympathetic crisis, postoperative hypertension, and hypertensive emergencies in pregnancy. RRTs must be able to rapidly assess the patient’s condition, initiate treatment, and triage the patient to the appropriate level of care. This chapter summarizes the initial evaluati

Abstract:

The placenta is a complex and changing organ necessary for normal fetal growth and development and for maintenance of a healthy pregnancy. It has three major functions: a protective function of the fetus, an endocrine function, and a metabolic function. The main functional unit of the placenta is the chorionic villous, responsible for the majority of the fetal–maternal exchanges. Migration of trophoblastic cells induces a remodelling of the uterine arteries, with vasodilatated and compliant vessels, unresponsive to maternal vasomotor control. Therefore, any significant change in maternal blood

Aspiration pneumonitis during the perioperative period is a serious complication and involves passage of sterile gastric contents into the airway resulting in alveolar damage. The mechanism of aspiration pneumonitis is characterized by a significant inflammatory reaction. The risk of aspiration is highest during anesthesia induction, but it is also present during emergence and extubation. The risk factors include delayed gastric emptying (gastritis, pain, pregnancy, obesity, elevated intracranial pressure), emergency surgery, upper abdominal surgery, and difficulty securing the airway.

The Business of Birth examines the effects of malpractice and reproductive rights laws on maternity care practices in the US from 1995 to 2015. It is a common public belief that frivolous malpractice claims and women’s choices shape hospital birth practices. This book uses mixed methods to demonstrate that this belief is inaccurate. The Business of Birth carefully documents how there are interconnected systems of laws and policies, or legal “regimes,” that influence birth practices in unexpected ways.

It focuses on 3 questions in order to examine these often complex philosophical issues: · Should we allow prospective parents using IVF to implant an embryo with a condition considered to be a disability? · Is routine screening for Down syndrome in pregnancy ethically acceptable, even if there is evidence that individuals may feel pressure to accept this screening? · Are we justified in att
