What is Nephrology?

Nephrology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, treatment, and management of kidney-related diseases. Nephrologists specialize in disorders affecting the kidneys, including conditions like chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney stones, hypertension, diabetic nephropathy, and acute kidney failure. The kidneys are vital organs responsible for filtering waste and excess fluid from the blood, maintaining a healthy balance of electrolytes, and regulating blood pressure.

Kidney disease can significantly affect your overall health, and early detection is essential for preventing further complications. At Aakash Hospital, we provide expert care for both acute and chronic kidney conditions, offering a range of treatments and therapies tailored to meet the needs of each patient.

Comprehensive Nephrology Services at Aakash Hospital

Our Nephrology Department at Aakash Hospital offers a complete range of services, from diagnosis and treatment to long-term management of kidney disorders. Our team of nephrologists, nurses, and support staff work together to provide personalized care, ensuring the best possible outcomes for every patient. Our services include:

1. Kidney Disease Diagnosis

Early diagnosis is crucial for managing kidney conditions effectively. At Aakash Hospital, we use state-of-the-art diagnostic technologies to evaluate kidney function and detect any abnormalities. Our diagnostic services include:

  • Blood Tests: These tests help assess kidney function by measuring levels of waste products like creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Elevated levels may indicate kidney dysfunction.
  • Urine Tests: Urine tests help detect the presence of protein, blood, or other abnormalities that could signal kidney disease.
  • Kidney Ultrasound: A non-invasive imaging test used to visualize the size, shape, and structure of the kidneys and detect conditions such as kidney stones, cysts, or tumors.
  • CT Scan: Provides detailed images of the kidneys and urinary tract to identify structural problems, kidney stones, or infections.
  • Renal Biopsy: A procedure in which a small sample of kidney tissue is removed for examination, helping to diagnose conditions like glomerulonephritis or kidney cancer.

2. Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Management

Chronic kidney disease is a long-term condition that can progressively damage the kidneys over time. If left untreated, CKD can lead to kidney failure. At Aakash Hospital, we offer comprehensive care for individuals with CKD, focusing on:

  • Blood Pressure Control: High blood pressure is a leading cause of kidney disease, and managing it is essential for preventing further kidney damage.
  • Diabetes Management: Diabetes is another major risk factor for kidney disease. Our nephrologists work with patients to manage blood sugar levels and prevent diabetic nephropathy (kidney damage caused by diabetes).
  • Dietary Counseling: Proper nutrition is crucial for managing kidney disease. We provide dietary counseling to help patients make healthy food choices that support kidney function and overall health.
  • Medications: We prescribe medications to control blood pressure, reduce protein in the urine, and manage complications like anemia and bone disease.

3. Dialysis Services

When kidney function declines significantly, dialysis is often required to help filter waste and excess fluid from the body. Aakash Hospital provides the following dialysis options:

  • Hemodialysis: A procedure in which a machine filters waste products from the blood when the kidneys can no longer do so.
  • Peritoneal Dialysis: Involves using the lining of the abdomen (peritoneum) as a filter to remove waste products from the blood.
  • Dialysis Access Surgery: We perform surgeries to create a reliable access point for dialysis, ensuring that patients receive effective treatment.

4. Kidney Transplantation

For patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), a kidney transplant may be the best treatment option. At Aakash Hospital, we offer comprehensive kidney transplant services, including:

  • Pre-Transplant Evaluation: We conduct thorough evaluations to determine whether a patient is a suitable candidate for a kidney transplant.
  • Living and Deceased Donor Programs: We facilitate both living and deceased donor kidney transplants to ensure timely access to life-saving treatment.
  • Post-Transplant Care: Our team provides ongoing care and monitoring after the transplant to prevent rejection, manage medications, and ensure the long-term success of the transplant.

5. Management of Acute Kidney Failure

Acute kidney failure occurs suddenly, often as a result of an illness, injury, or medication. At Aakash Hospital, we provide specialized care for patients experiencing acute kidney failure, offering:

  • Emergency Care: Immediate treatment to address the underlying cause of kidney failure, such as dehydration, infection, or medication toxicity.
  • Dialysis: Temporary dialysis may be necessary until kidney function returns to normal.
  • Renal Replacement Therapy: For patients with severe acute kidney failure, we may recommend continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), a type of dialysis used in critically ill patients.

6. Kidney Stones Treatment

Kidney stones are hard deposits that form in the kidneys and can cause pain, urinary tract infections, and blockages. Aakash Hospital offers advanced treatments for kidney stones, including:

  • Shock Wave Lithotripsy (SWL): A non-invasive procedure that uses sound waves to break up large kidney stones into smaller pieces, making them easier to pass.
  • Ureteroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure to remove or break up kidney stones using a small camera and specialized instruments.
  • Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL): A surgical procedure for removing large or complex kidney stones that cannot be treated with other methods.

7. Hypertension Management

High blood pressure is both a cause and a consequence of kidney disease. Our nephrologists specialize in managing hypertension in patients with kidney conditions, ensuring that blood pressure is well-controlled to prevent further kidney damage.

8. Glomerulonephritis Treatment

Glomerulonephritis is an inflammation of the kidney’s filtering units (glomeruli), often caused by infections, autoimmune diseases, or genetic conditions. Our nephrologists provide comprehensive care for this condition, which may include medications to control inflammation, immune system modulation, and dietary adjustments.
