Renal Hypertension is a disorder, which is characterized by a rise in the blood pressure that results from kidney disease. The blood flow to the kidney is impaired due to the narrowing of the arteries and this leads to renovascular hypertension.
Acute Renal Failure is a condition that develops when the kidneys lose their ability to filter out wastes, excess fluids and salts from the blood stream relatively suddenly. Eliminating these wastes forms the basic core of the kidney’s functioning.
Nephrotic Syndrome is a condition which is characterised by the loss of protein into the urine (called proteinuria) as a result of increased glomerular permeability and defect in the filtration of proteins. This results in low albumin levels in the blood. The low levels of protein in blood result in the drawing of fluids into soft tissues
