CKD: Diagnosis, Monitoring and Management

ABOUT THIS SESSION

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive condition affecting kidney function, often diagnosed through blood and urine tests revealing elevated creatinine levels and reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Monitoring involves regular assessments of kidney function through GFR measurements and tracking blood pressure, fluid balance, and electrolyte levels. Management strategies include lifestyle modifications, medication to control blood pressure and blood sugar, dietary adjustments, and, in advanced stages, renal replacement therapy such as dialysis or kidney transplantation. Join us in this session with Dr. M V Vishwanath on March 19 at 11:00 a.m. to learn more about the topic.
