Heritage Hospital is a top nephrology hospital that provides comprehensive renal care to effectively identify, diagnose, and treat patients with a wide range of nephrological conditions. The nephrology department is driven by two full-time senior consultants with a two-decade plus experience in managing acute and chronic renal conditions. The department is further augmented by our operationally proven support service infrastructure in the domains of diagnostics, interdisciplinary clinical support, and critical care support.

The Nephrology Department is geared to handle acute renal emergencies while being suitably prepared to tackle chronic kidney conditions. It offers the region's most comprehensive and best-in-class maintenance dialysis program. Our maintenance dialysis set-up has been created to provide world-class dialysis therapy to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. To this effect, we have made significant investments in a top-of-the-line German RO System, which powers our dialysis setup. This investment and the introduction of therapies such as HDF are meant to improve the life expectancy of patients undergoing dialysis until they can undergo kidney transplants. The hospital also runs the largest free maintenance dialysis program spread across 26 districts in the state of Uttar Pradesh in partnership with the state government.

As a premier renal care hospital in Varanasi, we have provided medical care to patients from all over the Purvanchal area and beyond, including patients from the states of Bihar, Jharkhand, and Madhya Pradesh. Heritage Hospitals has years of experience and expertise in providing high-quality, outcome-driven treatment to patients with kidney and dialysis conditions.

Common Diseases and Conditions

Kidney Infections

A kind of urinary tract infection is a kidney infection. (UTI). A kidney infection can start in the bladder or the urethra, the tube that transports urine from the body. One kidney or both may get infected. Urgent medical attention is required for kidney infections. An infection can harm the kidneys permanently if it is not adequately treated. Or the germs may enter the bloodstream and start a fatal illness.

Acute Renal Failure

Dangerous quantities of waste may build up when your kidneys lose their capacity to filter, and your blood's chemical composition may go out of balance. Acute kidney failure, also known as acute renal failure or acute kidney damage, occurs suddenly and often within a few days.

Chronic Kidney Disease and End-Stage Renal Disease

When chronic kidney disease—the progressive loss of kidney function—reaches an advanced stage, it results in end-stage renal disease, commonly known as end stage kidney disease or kidney failure. If you have end-stage renal disease, your kidneys no longer function as they should support your body's demands. Wastes and extra fluid are removed from the circulation by your kidneys and expelled in the urine. Dangerous quantities of fluid, electrolytes, and waste can accumulate in your body when your kidneys lose their filtering capacity. You require dialysis or a kidney transplant to survive if you have end-stage renal disease. You might choose conservative treatment to control your symptoms for the highest quality of life in your remaining time.

Prevention

Silent killers include kidney disorders. They may result in a gradual decrease of renal function, resulting in kidney failure and the need for dialysis or a kidney transplant to maintain life. The need for definitive therapy can frequently be avoided or postponed by early identification and treatment of CKD.

Here are seven suggestions for maintaining healthy kidneys:

  1. Be Active

  2. Have a Balanced Diet

  3. Don’t Smoke or consume Tabacco

  4. Say no to OTCs (over-the-counter painkillers)

  5. Keep your weight in Check

  6. Consume ample water

  7. Take regular Kidney Check-ups

CKD is an incurable condition. However, early discovery and diagnosis, followed by dietary restrictions, consistent monitoring, and appropriate therapy, will reduce its course and may delay the impending need for dialysis or a kidney transplant.

Round-the-clock An effective way to stop the progression of CKD is by adequate blood pressure regulation. Keeping blood pressure at 130/80 mm Hg or below is advised. The easiest strategy to get good control is to frequently check your blood pressure at home and keep a record. This will allow your doctor to alter your blood pressure meds as needed.

Kidney Biopsy

In a kidney biopsy, a small portion of kidney tissue is removed so that it may be studied under a microscope for indications of injury or illness.

 

To identify a potential kidney issue, your doctor might advise a kidney biopsy, also known as a renal biopsy. It can also be used to assess the severity of a kidney problem or to track the effectiveness of kidney disease treatment. You might also require a kidney biopsy if you have had a failed kidney transplant.

 

Most frequently, a doctor will do a kidney biopsy by puncturing the skin with a tiny needle. This is called a percutaneous kidney biopsy. The doctor can more easily remove kidney tissue using an imaging gadget.

 

A kidney biopsy might be performed to:

  • Help create treatment recommendations depending on the kidney's state and diagnose an issue that can't otherwise be found with the kidney.

  • Determine the rate of progression of kidney disease.

  • Identify the extent of renal disease or another disease's damage.

  • Analyse the effectiveness of renal disease treatment.

  • Check on the condition of a transplanted kidney or determine why one isn't functioning correctly.

 

Heritage Hospitals should be your first choice if you or someone close is advised for a Kidney Biopsy in Varanasi. With our trained staff and the latest diagnostic aids, we strive to provide the best results.
