Nephrology

The kidneys are organs that filter waste products and excess water from the blood of the entire body and excrete them as urine. Chronic kidney disease is a condition in which kidney function declines due to various factors, and waste products and excess water begin to accumulate in the body.

As chronic kidney disease progresses, waste products and excess fluids accumulate in the body, which can be life-threatening, making dialysis or a kidney transplant necessary. It also increases the risk of myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction. As a kidney specialist, I would be happy to support your kidney health.

In the early stages, there are no symptoms, but if the hyperglycemic state continues, symptoms such as dry mouth, excessive drinking and urination appear, and weight loss, general fatigue, and numbness in the hands and feet may occur. It may also be diagnosed based on symptoms such as periodontal disease and vision loss.

Inspection details

In Japan, it is estimated that approximately one in eight adults has chronic kidney disease.

However, because there are no noticeable symptoms in the early stages of chronic kidney disease, many people are unable to receive appropriate treatment at the appropriate time due to delayed diagnosis.

At our hospital, we monitor renal function and the activity of renal disease through blood and urine tests. If necessary, we also evaluate renal morphology and blood flow abnormalities through renal ultrasound examinations.

Treatment for kidney disease is divided into treatment of the underlying disease that is damaging the kidneys and treatment to protect the kidneys.

Treatment details

Treatment for the underlying disease includes immunosuppressants for glomerulonephritis.

Treatment of the underlying disease

腎臓の負担を減らし、現在の腎機能を維持するための治療です。具体的には、腎臓を悪くする因子である生活習慣病(高血圧、糖尿病など)の管理や、腎保護薬がそれに当たります。

腎臓を保護する治療

いずれも内服の治療になりますが、腎性貧血など一部の病態にはクリニックでの注射(皮下注射)を提案させて頂くことがあります。
