Information About Nephrology and Dialysis

Common Kidney Conditions
The two main causes of kidney disease are diabetes and high blood pressure. Between 2015-2017, these conditions were primary diagnoses in 76% of kidney failure cases: 47% of new KFRT patients had diabetes, the leading cause of KFRT, while 29% had hypertension, the second leading cause. 

Other conditions leading to KFRT include glomerulonephritis (damaging kidney filters), inherited diseases like polycystic kidney disease, birth malformations, lupus, immune diseases, obstructions like kidney stones, and repeated urinary tract infections causing kidney damage.
