INTRODUCTION
- Chronic kidney disease (CKD) means your kidneys are damaged and cannot filter blood the way they should. The main risk factors for developing kidney disease are diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and a family history of kidney failure. In the early stages of chronic kidney disease people might have few signs or symptoms. You might not realize that you have kidney disease until the condition is advanced.
- Treatment for chronic kidney disease focuses on slowing the progression of kidney damage, usually by controlling the cause. But, even controlling the cause might not keep kidney damage from progressing. Chronic kidney disease can progress to end-stage kidney failure, which is fatal without artificial filtering (dialysis) or a kidney transplant.
