Kidney Disease (click for worldwide facilities list): Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

People who have kidney disease require a multidisciplinary team to assist with the management of numerous medical and non medical issues they may face. The medical problems include: diagnosis and treatment of the disease affecting their kidneys, management of the metabolic complications of renal disease, anemia management, blood pressure control, dietary and nutritional counseling, and interventions to slow progression of chronic kidney disease.

Despite these efforts, kidney disease may progress and it is important that the patient receive the best medical care prior to the need for dialysis or transplantation to try to improve outcomes once these are needed

Kidney Failure

Kidney failure occurs when the kidneys partly or completely lose their ability to carry out normal functions. his is dangerous because water, waste, and toxic substances build up that normally are removed from the body by the kidneys. It also causes other problems such as anemia, high blood pressure, acidosis (excessive acidity of body fluids), disorders of cholesterol and fatty acids, and bone disease in the body by impairing hormone production by the kidneys

Acute Kidney Failure

Acute kidney failure is the sudden loss of your kidneys' ability to perform their main function — eliminate excess fluid and electrolytes as well as waste material from your blood. When your kidneys lose their filtering ability, dangerous levels of fluid, electrolytes and waste accumulate in your body. Acute kidney failure is most common in people who are already hospitalized, particularly people who need intensive care. Acute kidney failure tends to occur after complicated surgery, after a severe injury or when blood flow to your kidneys is disrupted. Acute kidney failure can be serious and generally requires intensive treatment. However, acute kidney failure may be reversible.

The first goal is to treat the illness or injury that originally damaged your kidneys. Once that's under control, the focus will be on preventing the accumulation of excess fluids and wastes in your blood while your kidneys heal. If you're otherwise in good health, you can recover normal kidney function.
