Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD): A Growing Concern

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a major concern, especially among diabetic and hypertensive patients. The prevalence of CKD is steadily increasing, and it has become a significant health challenge globally and in our community. CKD is characterized by a gradual loss of kidney function over time, leading to serious complications if not managed properly. At Patwardhan Hospital, we focus on early detection and intervention to slow the progression of CKD and prevent complications. Our multidisciplinary approach includes lifestyle modifications, medication management, and regular monitoring to help patients maintain their kidney health and overall well-being.

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI): Immediate Attention Required

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is another critical condition that demands immediate attention. AKI can occur suddenly due to infections, dehydration, or medications, leading to a rapid decline in kidney function. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent permanent kidney damage and other complications. At Patwardhan Hospital, our nephrology team is well-equipped to handle AKI cases with advanced diagnostic tools and state-of-the-art facilities. Our goal is to provide timely and effective treatment to restore kidney function and promote recovery.
