However, there are solid solutions for kidney sickness that are obscure to individuals with CKD. An eating regimen low in protein and phosphorus is typically one that is plant-based.

Book excerpt: The kidneys are important organs that are crucial to sustaining the body's general health and wellbeing. They produce hormones that support bone health and encourage the creation of red blood cells in addition to filtering waste materials and extra fluid from the blood, balancing electrolytes, regulating blood pressure, and generating. A wide range of illnesses that interfere with the kidneys' typical function are referred to as kidney disorders. These problems can be acute or chronic, and they can have a number of different root causes, such as dietary habits, genetics, underlying illnesses, and environmental variables. A person's health can be significantly impacted by kidney problems, which can cause symptoms like weariness, edema, changes in urine output, and other systemic signs. We'll give a general overview of renal problems in this chapter. We'll talk about the significance of maintaining healthy kidneys, the risk factors that can lead to renal problems, and the effects that these problems can have on general wellbeing and quality of life. In order to avoid complications and restore kidney health, we'll also emphasize how crucial early identification, accurate diagnosis, and prompt care of renal illnesses are.

Download or read book Chronic Kidney Disease written by Junwei Yang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-08 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive and systematic review of the latest findings in a wide spectrum of clinically important aspects of chronic kidney disease (CKD), focusing on clinical diagnosis and therapeutics. CKD is a global health problem with a rising morbidity and mortality. The last decade has seen significant improvements in determining the incidence, prevalence, and complications of CKD, mainly thanks to the definitions of CKD developed by the National Kidney Foundation’s Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (K/DOQI). However, increased recognition of CKD has led to awareness of the limitations of its clinical diagnosis and treatment, which are essential to patients’ wellbeing. This book is of particular value not only to nephrologists, but also to general practitioners and residents with an interest in CKD. It offers a well-organized exposition of the current knowledge base. Compared with previously published books on kidney disease and CKD, it has a smaller number of more concise chapters. As a result, readers can easily obtain an overview of the most important topics in CKD. We hope that practitioners will gain as much from reading this practical guide to clinical management of CKD as we have from editing it.

Download or read book Uremic Toxins written by Severin Ringoir and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book contains the Proceedings of a two day Symposium on Uremic Toxins organized at the University of Ghent in Belgium. A series of guest lectures, free communications and posters have been presented. An international audience of 163 scientists from 16 nationalities listened to and discussed extensively a spectrum of topics brought forward by colleagues and researchers who worked for many years in the field of Uremic Toxins. There is a striking contrast between all the new dialysis strategies available in the work to "clean" the uremic patients and the almost non-progression of our knowledge on uremic toxins in the past decade. In this sense the symposium was felt by all participants as a new start for the research in the biochemical field of the definition of uremia. If the present volume would stimulate new work in this field in order to define uremia, or identify the uremic toxins, the purpose of the organizers would be maximally fulfilled.

Download or read book Kidney Protection written by Vijay Lapsia and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kidney disease affects approximately ten percent of the population worldwide, with more than 2.6 million individuals estimated to be receiving renal replacement therapy. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is fast becoming a major public health issue, with increasing incidence and death rates throughout the world. Many strategies have been proposed to reduce the growing burden of kidney disease; but while early identification and improved access to renal replacement therapies and transplantation are important, they are unlikely to solve this enormous problem. Efforts focused on primary prevention, protection, and slowing the progression of kidney disease are needed as well. Renal protection is a vital and critical component of protecting the kidneys, promoting recovery, and preventing further renal loss, yet observational data suggests that awareness of renal protection remains low and the concept of renal protection under-recognized.. Kidney Protection: A Practical Guide to Preserving Renal Function in Acute and Chronic Disease is a clinically focused review that aims to address this awareness and knowledge gap. It assembles clinically pertinent information in a concise and lucid format with the goal of helping the clinician protect the kidneys, whether in the ICU, perioperative, or out-patient setting. The authors' interdisciplinary approach is inclusive of nephrology, urology, critical care, anesthesia, and emergency medicine. Chapters review understanding kidney disease, general concepts in protecting renal function, patient selection, assessment, pharmacologic issues, and kidney protection in systemic illness. The latest evidence-based practical guidelines for optimal renal outcomes are also included.

Download or read book Kidney Failure written by Jace Cooper and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-02-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renal failure, or kidney failure, is a medical disorder in which the kidneys are unable to perform their normal functions. The kidneys remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood, maintain electrolyte balance, and produce hormones that regulate blood pressure and red blood cell development, all of which are essential for sustaining overall health. When the kidneys are unable to filter waste and excess fluid from the body, it can cause a wide variety of dangerous health issues. The two most common causes of renal failure are: - Loss of kidney function that develops rapidly, usually within a few days to a few weeks, and is often reversible is called acute renal failure. Severe infections, dehydration, certain drugs, renal injury, and other medical disorders can all lead to acute kidney failure. Sometimes renal function can be restored in cases of acute kidney failure thanks to prompt medical intervention. - In the long-term, progressive illness known as chronic kidney disease (CKD), the kidneys' ability to filter blood and carry out their other normal tasks steadily deteriorates. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by a gradual decline in kidney function over the course of months or even years, and is frequently linked to diabetes, hypertension, or glomerulonephritis. In the later stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney function might degrade to the point where dialysis or a kidney transplant is necessary to sustain life. Tiredness, swelling (edema), altered urine output, elevated blood pressure, nausea, and confusion are all possible side effects of renal failure. The etiology of kidney failure and whether it is acute or chronic affect how it is treated and managed. However, chronic kidney disease generally necessitates long-term medical treatment, adjustments in lifestyle, and, in extreme cases, renal replacement therapy like dialysis or kidney transplantation. Kidney failure and its related problems can be slowed or avoided entirely with prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Book excerpt: This book written for the average reader, offers useful information for patients with very mild CKD to those patients who need to plan for dialysis or kidney transplant. It offers scientifically proven ways to slow progression of CKD, including a chapter on a Smart Diet for all CKD patients. This diet not only can slow CKD progression but can also help patients to live longer and better. It offers the best treatments for the medical problems that can come with a diagnosis of CKD. For most patients this book will alleviate concerns about having CKD and for some patients with advanced CKD it offers an approach that can delay the start of dialysis for many months or even years in some cases. It explains why low and very low protein diets, promoted by many kidney books for patients, is usually not beneficial and may even be harmful. It provides the latest recommendations for treatment of CKD that comes from international kidney doctor organizations. The book is organized in a way that provides information for all patients with CKD in the first part of the book and has information in later chapters for patients whose CKD has progressed. For those patients who want to get the "meat" of the book, the final chapter provides a summary of all the book's material. Some patients may want to start here and read the full chapters at their leisure. The book is referenced with current kidney disease publications. It explains situations where kidney disease is reversible and ways to prevent reversible declines in kidney function. It dispels many myths about CKD treatment that have no benefit and, in some cases, may be dangerous. For patients who are wondering about whether dialysis is in their future, the book offers several ways to predict if dialysis is very likely or very unlikely in a CKD patient's future. It lays out pros and cons of the various options for patients who are considering a kidney transplant or dialysis and explains why getting a kidney transplant before dialysis is ever started or choosing home peritoneal dialysis are the two best options for most CKD patients who require a kidney replacement therapy.
