    Author: Faratro R, D'Gama C.
    Journal: J CANNT; 1999; 9(1):31-4. PubMed ID: 10335162.
    Abstract:
    Pregnancy in the dialysis patient is a rare occurrence. When pregnancy does occur, the risk of spontaneous abortion, stillbirth and neonatal complications such as prematurity and growth retardation are fairly high. This paper discusses issues surrounding pregnancy and the dialysis patient. It also follows the pregnancy of one hemodialysis patient at The Toronto Hospital. Guidelines for the care of pregnant dialysis patients are reviewed.
