However, during pregnancy the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) increases its work rate up to 50%, on the contrary, in preeclampsia the GFR turns back to decline. Objectives: This study aims to measure and compare kidney function between preeclamptic and normal pregnant women. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted in the period from March to May 2021 in Wad Medani Obstetrics and Gynecology Teaching Hospital. A total of 100 pregnant women, 50 apparently healthy pregnant women and 50 pregnant ladies proved to have preeclamptic toxemia, their ages ranged from 18 to 44 years old and at the third trimester of pregnancy. Blood samples were taken and serum was separated, then urea, creatinine, uric acid, sodium and potassium were determined. Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). Results: The results of this study revealed that 92% of preeclamptic pregnant women had the first time of the incidence and 8% were family inherited preeclampsia and injured multiple times. The preeclamptic pregnant women showed elevation in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to the normal pregnant women. Although the creatinine values of all study subjects were in the normal range, the mean of its serum level was found to be higher in normal pregnant women than that in preeclamptic women. The study also showed urea level was elevated in the preeclampsia group in comparison to the normal one, while all values were in the normal range. In addition to the significant difference that observed in the uric acid mean between preeclamptic (higher) and normal pregnant groups, abnormal values were only noticed with many preeclamptic patients. The levels of electrolytes (sodium and potassium) were elevated in the preeclampsia women group, whereas all values were in the normal range. Conclusion: This study concluded that preeclamptics showed significant elevation in the urea, uric acid, sodium and potassium levels and a significant decrease in creatinine level compared to normal pregnant women, although all parameters values for both groups were in the reference values for non-pregnancy.展开更多
