Treatment of the IRC is based on dialysis, or While renal transplantation in the best. In pregnancy it is considered that mild renal disease (creatinine 1 to 1.4mg / d) is unchanged, but the moderate or severe is a risk of approximately 30% deterioration in such a way that people with mild kidney disease evolve, and the latter if it did not need to be dialysed, are candidates for hemodialysis during pregnancy as discussed in previous article, the association of type 1 diabetes, severe hypertension difficult to control and IRC set a bad prognosis for the baby, and most of these pregnancies result in stillbirths (intrauterine fetal death) or preterm deliveries neuropathy is characterized by destruction of peripheral nerves due to hyperglycemia.
