Chronic Kidney Disease

Long-term loss of kidney filtering function, often linked with diabetes, hypertension, and vascular disease.

In simple language

Chronic kidney disease means the kidneys are not filtering blood as well as they should over time. It can develop slowly and may not cause symptoms early on.

Kidney function influences blood pressure, medication safety, fluid balance, bone health, and overall cardiovascular risk.
