Kidney Patient Prep for Corona Virus
Protect your Kidneys from Novel Corona Virus. Be Kidney Friendly.
Most of the cases
associated with Kidney Failures are majorly targeted by Corona Viruses. At the
beginning or during the infection, Proteinuria (and/or blood in urine) often
occurs and a few patients even develop acute kidney injury (AKI). From this
data, it is clearly observed that Covid-19 also attacks the kidneys. The
dedicative measures and the efforts taken by the nephrologists are truly
appreciated. Since the role of Kidneys play a vital role during the infection
of Corona Virus infection, patients should also be monitored after the disease.
The role of Kidneys
during the Novel Corona Virus infection is prominent and this clearly reveals
that the people who have been tested positive and have developed with symptoms
has a severe impact in the involvement of their kidney function.
A high rate of renal
abnormalities in corona-positive patients admitted to hospital in which 34% of
the 59 patients developed massively elevated levels of albumin in urine i.e.,
the proteinuria, a symptom of kidney damage 63% of the study patients developed
proteinuria while in hospital, and many of them also had blood loss in their
urine (hematuria). Kidney function was impaired in 27% of the study population
and in 66% of the patients who died from the coronavirus infection. These
findings are supported by a second study involving 710 hospitalized patients:
On admission, 44% had hematuria and proteinuria (26.7% had hematuria only), and
kidney function decreased in nearly 15%.
From the above two
studies it is clearly inferred that “This shows that COVID-19 also attacks the
kidneys, not just the lungs”.
Patients affected with
Covid-19 and sepsis syndrome (regardless of their kidney function) can be
treated with Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT). At this crucial point
of time, we seek the nephrologists to support and guide the patients.
Nephrologists from all over the world are completely ready to face and solve
this current issue. Nephrologists in all the countries are ready for action and
are dedicated and committed to help in this crisis.

Don’t Stress Yourself, Its Time to Focus On Kidney Too....
Its estimated more than 37 million American adults have
CKD. CKD, causes more deaths than
prostate cancer or breast cancer. 90% don’t even realise that they have CKD.
CKD is more common in women than men.The very basic work of the kidney is that
it acts as filters of your bloodstream. When the blood passes through kidneys
nephrons filers out the waste products. It removes all the waste products exit
your body in the form of urine. Kidneys failure happens when your kidneys are
no longer able to filter your blood properly. This imbalance interferes with
other systems in the body by potentially causing anaemia and proteinemia while
waste products continue to build up.
Kidney Failure Symptoms
Unfortunately, there is no proven evidence for the Symptoms
of Kidney disease or Kidney failure. Some patients may show no signs at all,
till the time that kidneys have undergone extensive damage and can no longer
help them out in anyways.
• Vomiting
and Nausea.
• Loss of
appetite
• unexplained
shortness of breath
• Reduced
and Change in amount of urine
• Edema
• Fatigue
• Difficulty
in Breathing
• Pressure
in your Chest
• Confusion
• Excessive
Drowsiness
• Loss of
Appetite
Its very important that we listen to our body.
How to reduce risk of KIDNEY FAILURE??
Try to understand when your taking medication, especially
when you do a counter medication. Taking doses that are too high (common drugs
like aspirin) create high toxin levels in a short amount of time. This can
overload your kidneys. Most of the time kidney or urinary tract conditions lead
to kidney failure if not properly taken care and managed. You can help reduce
your risk for kidney failure by:
• Strictly
following your doctor’s advice.
• following
healthy lifestyle style modification.
• Proper
treatment for common causes such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
• Try and
have a healthy work life balance.
• Start
improving your overall level of fitness when you get older.
The maximum awareness about the Kidney, helps in prevention
of the disease without any doubt and also early diagnosing and proper treatment
helps in fighting CKD. Learning and volunteering for organ donations helps in
saving lives.
