Complexities of Renal Failure - Management and Prevention

Abstract

With a recent surge in cases, renal failure has emerged as a pressing concern within the medical community. Renal failure, also known as kidney failure, represents a significant health challenge characterized by the kidneys’ inability to adequately filter waste products from the blood. The escalating incidence of renal failure underscores the importance of understanding its causes, symptoms, and treatment modalities to mitigate its impact on individuals’ health and well-being.

The Indian Practitioner recently explored the complexities of renal failure in our interaction with Dr. KS Nayak, Chief Nephrologist at Vrinchi Hospital, Hyderabad. Dr. Nayak shared his views on the condition’s underlying mechanisms, risk factors, and modern strategies for its management and prevention.
