ISN Webinar: Navigating pregnancy and CKD – common cases, difficult questions
- 21:00 CET
Pregnancy is an important event in the life of a woman with kidney disease yet one of the least frequently encountered by the clinicians who care for her. Decisions made during the CKD journey, before conception, during pregnancy and in the months afterwards shape not only the outcome of that pregnancy, but the woman’s long-term kidney health. Yet most nephrologists manage only a small number of these pregnancies, with uncertainty arising in clinically challenging scenarios.
This International Society of Nephrology webinar is designed to close that gap in a practical way. It draws directly on the Pregnancy and Kidney Disease Train the Trainer program and toolkit — a global teaching resource developed for clinicians across diverse health systems and resource settings and built to be adapted and taught locally.
This webinar will focus on clinical cases that address challenges in the care of women with kidney disease, offering practical tips on management and nuanced discussion of controversial areas and uncertainties.
The webinar has pre-recorded videos to support learning.
Who should attend: Nephrologists, obstetric physicians, obstetricians, trainees, advanced practice nurses and midwives — anyone who cares for women of reproductive age with kidney disease.
Learning objectives:
- Undertake a structured pre-conception assessment and estimate pregnancy risk
- Understand the basics of managing pregnancy across the spectrum of CKD
- Develop individualized and safe preconception and pregnancy management plans for women in your care
