Popis: There is a trend in reproductive-aged women to live with more chronic conditions, likely resulting in pregnancies complicated by one or more pre-gestational diagnoses. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of women with pre-gestational diagnoses and pregnancy-related complications, and assess the trends of pre-gestational diagnoses between two time-points, ten-years apart from 2006 to 2016. We abstracted pregnant patients from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project���s National Inpatient Sample by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality in 2006 and 2016. We classified diagnosis codes, ICD 9 for 2006 and ICD 10 for 2016, as pre-gestational diagnoses or as pregnancy-related complications. Descriptive statistics were presented as frequencies and proportions for categorical variables. Chi-square analysis was performed. All statistical analyses were two-sided and p-value Between 2006 and 2016, the percentage of patients with at least one pre-gestational diagnoses increased from 35.3% in 2006 to 53.8% in 2016 (p p The percent of patients entering pregnancy with any pre-gestational diagnosis has increased, along with the number of pregnancy-related complications. Future research is needed to understand the effects of these diagnoses in combination and the possible impact on pregnancy outcomes.
