Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Management

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Management

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a long-term condition characterized by a gradual loss of kidney function over time. At Sri Balaji Kidney Care Centre, we offer specialized and comprehensive management of CKD to help patients maintain their quality of life and delay the progression of kidney failure.

CKD often develops silently and may go unnoticed in its early stages. It is commonly caused by underlying conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, recurrent urinary tract infections, glomerular diseases, and polycystic kidney disease. Early diagnosis and timely intervention are key to slowing its progression and avoiding complications.

Our CKD management program begins with a thorough clinical evaluation and diagnostic testing, including blood tests (creatinine, urea, GFR), urine analysis (proteinuria), ultrasound, and other investigations to determine the stage and cause of kidney damage.

Medical management includes strict control of blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels, along with the use of kidney-protective medications such as ACE inhibitors or ARBs. We also address complications commonly associated with CKD, including anemia, bone mineral disorders, fluid overload, and electrolyte imbalances.

Nutritional counseling is an integral part of our care. Our clinic offers specialized dietary guidance to help patients manage protein, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and fluid intake. Diet plays a crucial role in slowing CKD progression and improving overall well-being.

Patient education and lifestyle modification are equally emphasized. We empower patients with knowledge about their condition, importance of medication adherence, physical activity, smoking cessation, and regular monitoring. Through regular follow-ups and counseling, we work closely with patients to track their progress and make timely adjustments to their treatment.

As the disease advances, we provide early preparation for renal replacement therapy, including dialysis options and kidney transplant evaluation. We guide patients and their families through each step with clarity and support.

At Sri Balaji Kidney Care Centre, our goal is to provide ethical, evidence-based, and compassionate care for CKD patients. With expert monitoring, advanced diagnostic support, and a multidisciplinary approach, we strive to improve outcomes and enhance the quality of life for every individual living with chronic kidney disease.
