Overview
Nephrology is the medical specialty that focuses on diagnosing and treating disorders of the kidneys. Understanding renal functions is crucial as the kidneys play a vital role in removing waste products, maintaining electrolyte balance, regulating fluid levels, and performing various endocrine functions within the body.Diseases affecting the kidneys can lead to the accumulation of waste products, electrolyte imbalances, and fluid retention, all of which can adversely affect the function of other organ systems in the body.
Early prevention and prompt treatment of renal diseases are paramount, as many of these conditions are progressive and can impose significant social and financial burdens on both families and society as a whole. By addressing renal disorders proactively, healthcare professionals can mitigate complications and improve outcomes for patients, enhancing their quality of life and reducing healthcare costs in the long term.
