Overview
The prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of kidney-related illnesses are the main goals of SSM Hospital’s nephrology department. The kidneys are essential organs that eliminate waste, maintain healthy minerals in the body, balance bodily fluids, and regulate blood pressure. Dangerous poisons can accumulate in the blood when the kidneys fail.
Using advanced diagnostic techniques and secure treatment plans, our team offers comprehensive care for both acute (sudden) and chronic (long-term) kidney disorders. Our goals are to assist patients avoid problems, enhance quality of life, and reduce the development of their diseases. We provide individualized treatment programs, nutritional counseling, and long-term follow-up care to patients of all ages.

Treatments & Procedure
Dialysis Care
Excess fluid and waste are artificially eliminated when kidney function is compromised.
When the kidneys are unable to eliminate waste and excess fluid from the blood, dialysis is a therapy that can help.(To put it simply, dialysis functions similarly to an artificial kidney.)
Management of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Long-term care to prevent kidney function from gradually declining.
Gradually declining kidney function over months or years is known as chronic renal disease.
Medication, blood pressure management, food planning, and routine monitoring are all part of the treatment to avoid renal failure
Acute Kidney Injury Treatment
Therapy for acute renal failure that is reversible.
Dehydration, infections, serious illnesses, or drug responses can all cause sudden kidney failure. Our physicians promptly determine the reason and, if necessary, administer medicine, dialysis, and fluid correction.
Hypertension (Kidney-related BP) Management
Specialized management of hypertension to preserve renal function.
Blood pressure is mostly controlled by the kidneys. Uncontrolled blood pressure can harm the kidneys, and renal impairment can exacerbate blood pressure. We offer long-term management regimens and specialist blood pressure evaluations.
Diabetic Kidney Disease Care
Tracking and managing renal damage brought on by chronic diabetes.
Chronic diabetes can cause progressive damage to kidney filters. Early detection through blood and urine testing prevents the need for future dialysis.
Electrolyte & Fluid Balance Treatment
Correction of improper potassium and sodium levels in the body.
Nerves, muscles, and the heart are all regulated by electrolytes. Imbalance may cause weakness, swelling, or irregular heartbeat and needs medical correction.
Pre-Dialysis & Kidney Failure Care
Preparation and observation prior to the need for dialysis.
In order to postpone dialysis and control symptoms, patients with severe renal disease undergo counseling, diet planning, and therapy.

FAQs
Leg swelling, decreased urination, exhaustion, nausea, appetite loss, or chronic hypertension.
It is possible to delay and regulate the early phases. Dialysis may be necessary for advanced renal failure.
Take frequent blood tests, avoid needless painkillers, drink enough water, and manage your blood pressure and diabetes.
Acute renal issues are reversible. Long-term, chronic kidney disease is treatable with the right care.
Dialysis is a process that eliminates excess fluid and toxins from the blood when the kidneys fail.
Indeed. Over time, high blood sugar damages kidney filters. Serious harm can be avoided with routine examinations.
When kidney function is severely compromised and the body is unable to eliminate toxins on its own, dialysis becomes necessary.
