Unraveling Acute Kidney Disease: Triggers and Telltale Signs Acute kidney disease, often known as acute kidney injury (AKI), is a critical medical condition characterized by a sudden and rapid decline in kidney function. Understanding the stages and identifying symptoms is crucial for timely intervention. This article delves into acute kidney disease triggers, stages, and telltale signs. It explores treatment options, from acute renal failure medications to acute glomerulonephritis therapy. By shedding light on the complexities of acute kidney disease, we aim to empower individuals and healthcare professionals alike with the knowledge needed for early diagnosis and comprehensive treatment, ultimately improving patient outcomes and kidney health.

Given that acute kidney injury (AKI) impacts a substantial number of hospitalizations and is associated with chronic kidney disease and a range of potential negative outcomes, discharge reporting is of critical importance for post-hospital treatment. A retrospective chart review by BC renal clinicians and researchers found significant room for improvement in the quality and completeness of discharge reporting for patients hospitalized with AKI, and recommends a number of strategies to improve education and awareness of AKI, as well quality of discharge reporting.

More than 6 million African-American adults have been diagnosed with kidney disease, and Black Americans also suffer from disproportionately high incidences of obesity, hypertension, and heart disease. Monogram Health is committed to not only improving the management of polychronic kidney disease but also overcoming the fragmented systems of care that compound these conditions. We’re working to transform health care to better serve all populations across America. In recognition of #BlackHistoryMonth, we’re honoring the triumphs and struggles of all those who have fought for a healthier, more equitable nation. #MonogramHealth #blackhistory #healthequity #happyblackhistorymonth #blackhistorymonth2024 #valuebasedcare #nationalspecialtyprovider #evidencebasedcare #inhome #polychronic #ckd #eskd #caredelivery #caremanagement #providersofcare #caretransformation #improvedoutcomes #quality #costcontainment #patients #bendingthecostcurve

𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐊𝐢𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 Dismissing the myth that feeling fine implies no kidney issues, the truth is that Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) often manifests without symptoms initially. Annual check-ups are vital, especially for those with high-risk factors. Astonishingly, approximately one-fourth of CKD patients only seek medical attention when they reach the advanced stage requiring dialysis. Prioritize kidney health, stay informed, and schedule regular check-ups to catch potential issues early. Let's debunk myths, raise awareness, and emphasize the importance of proactive kidney care. #KidneyHealthAwarenessMonth #CKDMyths #kidneydonor #HealthTruths #StayInformed #ProactiveKidneyCare #kidneytransplant #PreventiveCare #AnnualKidneyCheckups #kidneydisease #kidneyawareness #kidneyhealth #chronickidneydisease

Most kidney disease starts after 65 – here’s how to help prevent it... Most of us don’t give much thought to our kidneys — until we have to. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects an estimated 37 million Americans, with older adults facing the highest risk. According to current estimates, people ages 65 and older account for 38% of total chronic kidney disease cases. And yet as many as 9 in 10 adults with CKD don’t even know they have it.   There are simple steps you can take to minimize your odds of developing kidney damage. And diagnosing CKD early makes it easier to treat, notes nephrologist George Hart, M.D., chief medical officer of Interwell Health, a kidney care management company. ☎ Contact a local agent to learn more #unitedhealthcare #uhc #unitedhealthgroup #ExperienceUHC #thereforwhatmatters https://lnkd.in/gQ_GHfxw

𝐑𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 In our weekly meeting, our state's program coordinators discussed on the prevalence of Congenital Heart Disease. Congenital heart disease is a condition that affects the normal functioning of the heart. It is a condition that is present from birth, and it can range from mild to severe. In India, the estimated number of children born with congenital heart disease is over 200,000 per year. About one-fifth of these suffer from critical heart disease requiring early intervention. Congenital heart disease occurs when the heart or blood vessels near the heart do not develop normally before birth. This interaction also provided the roadmap for families of Children with heart disease and the required medical intervention support and pathway of care. #childreninindia #CongenitalHeartDiseaseAwareness #WeeklyMeetingDiscussion #HeartHealth #ChildrensHealth #EarlyIntervention #MedicalInterventionSupport #PathwayOfCare #HealthcareAwareness #HeartDiseasePrevalence

#HCP: Coordinating a timely, comprehensive approach to cardio-renal-metabolic (C-R-M) care is critical to address multisystem risk. That's why we're introducing our new downloadable digital resource – the C-R-M Action Pack. It’s filled with the latest clinical guidelines to help primary care professionals and other front-line clinicians formulate a plan of action that prioritizes the overall health of adults with interconnected conditions – including chronic kidney disease (CKD), type 2 diabetes (T2D) or heart failure (HF).

This paper reports the case of a 69-year-old female with Lyme disease, exhibiting an atypical rash with purplish discoloration that was devoid of an outer ring or central clearing. In geographic areas with a high incidence of LD, it is especially important for clinicians to recognize alternative LD presentations. Healthcare providers should maintain a high index of suspicion of LD in patients with tick bites, even without typical EM, to ensure early diagnosis and treatment. #lyme #borrelia #lymedisease #lymediagnostics

With the rise in chronic kidney disease (CKD) incidence, NKF is proactively exploring ways and means to address this daunting issue by taking a multipronged approach. This involves not only expanding our capacity but also seeking more effective strategies, including close collaborations with stakeholders, such as the SGH-NKF Renal Research Partnership. Changing the current landscape of the rising CKD rate requires the collective efforts of an entire community. Let's persist in our efforts!

#MENSHEALTHWEEK♂ 🩺🔎WHO Group 3 PH, resulting from chronic lung disease, is often observed more in male patients compared to females. Intriguingly, a study investigated healthy men aged 17 to 34 living at high altitudes and found that mild pulmonary hypertension, coupled with a moderate increase in pulmonary vascular resistance, was more prevalent in men permanently residing at high altitudes than in females. This finding contrasts with the general understanding that females are at a greater risk of developing any form of PH. ➡️Read more on our website: https://bit.ly/3VEcz73 ➡️Join our free pulmonary hypertension platform: www.belaircenter.info #PHAEurope #patients #patientempowerment #awareness #phositivity #raredisease #pulmonaryhypertension #respiratoryhealth #breathing #patientright #health #menhealth #CTEPH
