Acute Kidney Injury

Acute kidney injury or acute renal failure means a disease wherein damage to the kidneys has occurred within a few hours to days. Normal kidneys get rid of waste products and extra fluid that are genrated as a result of metabolism and intake. When kidneys are damaged, waste products and fluids get accumulated. Depending on the severity of illness, this can indirectly lead to problems with the function of other organs like brain, lungs and heart.

Chronic Kidney Disease

Chronic Kidney Disease means that there is evidence of kidney damage or decrease in kidney function which has been there for more than 3 months. In most cases, the damage begins slowly and progresses over time.
If identified early, it may be possible to initiate some therapy which may help slow down further worsening. In other cases, where there is very poor kidney function, patients may develop problems related to build up of toxins and extra fluids in the body. In some situations, the patient may beed dialysis.
