TREATMENT

Inj. LASIX 40mg/IV/BD
T. NODOSIS550mg/PO/BD
T.SHELCAL 500mg/PO/OD
T.OROFER-XT/PO/OD
T.AMLONG 5mg/PO/OD
Inj. Erythropoietin 4000 IU/S/C
Weekly DNCE
Inj. HAI S/C PRE MEAL
Acc. To SLIDING SCALE /TLD

ABOUT THE CASE:
☆The patient came to OPD with complaints of bipedal edema and decreased urine output.
    ☆By performaning Renal Function tests (RFT) , we can clearly see elevated levels of urea,creatinine in blood.
☆so we can say it is CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE ie..renal failure which lead to accumulation of waste products(urea and creatinine ) and water (pedal edema)

My quires: 
● Is kidney transplant is required?

▪Thank you keerthi reddy mam for giving me this information and helping me in this project.

  1)Which is more common ¹) CKD causing hypertension ²) hypertension causing CKD ANS AS PER DATA  GLOBAL BURDEN OF HYPERTENSION ON POPULATION IS 30% i.e., 1.3 billions  GLOBAL BURDEN OF CKD ON POPULATION IS 13.4% Severe hypertension causes vascular damage, tubular damage So this causes chronic kidney disease  As per data hypertension causing CKD IS more common 2) at what levels of urea and creatinine diuretics won't work and dialysis is recommended Ans) Urea levels-35.7mmol/litre Creatinine levels- 29%  As kidneys are severely damaged the urine cannot be excreted so there is no use in taking diuretics for edema so then dialysis is recommended.
