Kidney transplant is one of the most common organ transplant surgeries executed nowadays. A kidney transplant is a surgical method that’s done to treat Kidney Failure. This surgery is a life saving choice for thousands of patients with End Stage Renal Disease. The kidneys filter waste from the blood and eliminate it from the body through your urine. They also help to maintain your body’s fluid and electrolyte balance. If your kidneys stop functioning, waste builds up in your body and can make you very sick.

A kidney infection is one of the urinary tract infections (UTI). Most kidney infections are caused by bacteria or viruses that first infect the lower urinary tract. Then, the infection travels upstream to one or both kidneys, which are part of the upper urinary tract. Onco-nephrology comprises the extensive range of kidney disorders that can arise in patients with cancer. Beyond cancers of the kidney, non-renal cancers can have renal complications, and anticancer therapies, including chemotherapy.

The urinary system is the body's drainage system for eliminating wastes and extra water. It comprises kidneys, ureters, a bladder and a urethra. Urinary Tract Infections (UTI’s) are the second most common type of infection in the human body. Urologic diseases or conditions consist of urinary tract infections, kidney stones, bladder control problems and prostate problems. Some urologic disorders last only a short time, while others are lifelong.

A nephrology nurse is a nursing proficiencies that focus on kidney health. They treat and care for patients that are suffering from kidney diseases as well as those that are at risk of increasing kidney problems. Certain medical complications that nephrology nurses may happenstance include polycystic kidney disease, renal cysts, obstructions, and kidney stones. The focussed care of patients whose conditions are lethal and who require complete care and endlessmonitoring, usually in intensive care units are also known as intensive care. 

The most common hereditary kidney disease is autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). People with ADPKD form cysts in their kidneys. The cysts fill with fluid and damage their kidneys over time. Doctors can diagnose ADPKD before the age of 40, at a time kidney function measurement appears normal.

Anemia is a common disorder kidney disease and other conditions where there are not enough blood cells or not enough haemoglobin to carry oxygen around the body. Anemia commonly occurs in people with chronic kidney disease the permanent, partial loss of kidney functions. Anemia might begin to develop in the initial stages of CKD, when someone has 20 to 50% of normal kidney function. Anemia tends to get worse as CKD progresses. Most people, who have complete loss of kidney function or kidney failure, have anemia. A person has kidney failure when he or she needs a kidney transplantation or dialysis in order to live.

Nephrotic syndrome is a disorder marked by very high levels of protein in the urine; low levels of protein in the blood, swelling, especially around the eyes, feet and hands; and high cholesterol. Nephrotic syndrome is a set of indications, not a disease in itself. It can occur with several infections, so prevention relies on regulating the diseases that cause it. Treatment of Nephrotic syndrome focuses on ascertaining and treating the fundamental cause, if possible and dropping high cholesterol, blood pressure and protein in the urine through diet, medication or both.
