title: Nursing management of the pregnant hemodialysis patient.
abstract: Pregnancy is an uncommon occurrence in the end stage renal disease (ESRD) patient population and more so in the patient on chronic hemodialysis therapy. The management of the pregnant hemodialysis patient covers a wide spectrum of concerns. Many resources must be used to deliver safe, quality care to the patient. The knowledge gained from our experience in caring for a pregnant hemodialysis patient will benefit the nephrology nursing community. With the advent of erythropoietin, the number of pregnant ESRD patients may grow, and the demand for knowledge on how to care for these patients will also become increasingly evident.
