Most of human beings are born with two kidneys. Kidney is an organ which resembles a fist. They are located just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Each of the kidney is made up of about a million filtering units called nephrons. The kidneys remove wastes and extra fluid from the body. The kidneys also remove acid that is produced by the cells. This helps in maintaining a healthy balance of water, salts, and minerals in the blood.
The kidneys undergo continuous damage if any person is suffering from diabetes or high blood pressure. If both the kidneys get damaged by 75% then they are unable to filter and clean the blood. The impurities in the blood start damaging all the other organs of the body and the health of the person starts deteriorating. This condition is called Kidney Failure.
Kidney Failure is diagnosed by a physician or a nephrologist by doing a clinical examination of the patient and on the basis of test reports. The tests include urine test, blood tests like - CBC, Kidney Function Test, Liver Function Test and Serum Electrolytes. Imaging tests like CT Urography and MRI are also helpful in diagnosing Kidney Failure.
If the kidney failure is due to some kind of infection then it can be treated with antibiotics. If the kidney failure is due to other conditions like diabetes or hypertension then kidney dialysis is the only option till the patient gets kidney transplant surgery. Kidney dialysis is done on a special machine which cleans the blood. The patient has to lie down on a couch. The doctor creates AV Fistula on the arm and two needles are inserted in this fistula. One needle removes blood and transfers it to the dialysis machine, while the other returns the filtered blood to the body.
Nephrus is one of the best centre in India for the patients of Kidney Disease, Diabetes and Hypertension. Dr Munindra Kumar is one of the best nephrologist for treating the patients of Kidney Failure. Nephrus has installed best in class Dialysis machines to perform Kidney Dialysis for Kidney failure patients.
In order to lead a healthy life each patient needs to undergo dialysis sessions 8-12 times every month. The cost of dialysis is in the range of Rs. 2000 - 2600 depending upon the consumables used in the session. Patients can opt for long term packages which will help them in reducing the total cost of the treatment. The cost of kidney dialysis would be around 18-25 thousand per month while the cost of kidney transplant surgery is Rs. 5-6 lacs at good private hospitals.
Other costs involved are the blood and urine tests which the patients will have to undergo every 2-3 months to check the health status of the patient. Kidney dialysis has to be done continuously till the patient is able to find a matching and willing donor from the family for getting kidney transplant surgery done.
