STUDY OF SERUM URIC ACID LEVEL AS A PROGNOSTIC FACTOR IN CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE-A HOSPITAL BASED STUDY

Dr Ankush Agrawal, Dr Sushma Pandey

Abstract


Chronic kidney disease is defined by the presence of kidney damage or decrease  kidney function  for three  or  more months irrespective of  the cause. The symptoms of worsening kidney function are non-specific, and might include feeling generally unwell and experiencing a reduced appetite . Often, chronic kidney disease is diagnosed as result of screening of people known to be at risk of kidney problems, such as those with high blood pressure or diabetes and  those with a blood relative with chronic kidney disease.


Keywords
