What Is An Acute Renal Failure? Ayurvedic Acute Renal Failure Treatments – Dr. Puneet Dhawan
Role of kidneys
Kidneys are bean-shaped organs namely kidneys. The kidneys filter the metabolic waste and extra fluid from the blood. In addition to this, they also help in regulating blood pressure, red blood cell production and electrolyte balance. A renal failure occurs when kidneys are not able to clean the blood of the metabolic waste. This situation can lead to building up of high levels of toxic waste in the body which can harm the kidneys as well as other organs of the body.
What is an acute renal failure?
Acute renal failure is the condition in which there is a sudden fall in the function of kidneys. If the kidneys lose their filtering ability the dangerous level of waste may accumulate and the chemical makeup of the blood may get misbalance. This situation is common among people who are already hospitalized or under treatment.
