Kidney disease

There are four basic parts to treating renal insufficiency.

Controlling arterial pressure, if it is high; levels of urea; the balance of mineral salts (sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium); acidity and anaemia. Analytical testing provides a lot of information which enables the origin and severity of the kidney disease to be established.

A kidney biopsy allows a microscopic study that is often essential. Genetic testing also provides very important information.
