Can kidney damage caused by preeclampsia lead to uremia?

Patient's question:

Can kidney damage caused by preeclampsia lead to uremia? There is a lot of information suggesting that the risk seems quite high. I am currently in the pregnancy period and also suffer from this condition. The doctor told me not to worry, that everything is fine. I would like to ask if kidney damage caused by preeclampsia can lead to uremia?

Doctor's answer:

Preeclampsia can lead to recurrent kidney damage. If proper and complete recovery is not achieved, it may result in recurrent damage to kidney function. In severe cases, it can lead to the recurrence of uremic conditions. Therefore, in treatment, it is crucial to flexibly use various antihypertensive medications to control blood pressure effectively. At the same time, timely urine routine and renal function tests should be conducted to check for any significant abnormalities. Treatment should be tailored based on the test results.
