Conditions Treated

Electrolyte imbalance

Electrolyte imbalance occurs when the levels of essential minerals such as sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphorus or magnesium in the body become too high or too low. These electrolytes are vital for nerve function, muscle movement, heartbeat regulation, and fluid balance. Imbalances can result from dehydration, kidney disease, hormonal disorders, or certain medications. Symptoms may range from mild to severe and can become life-threatening if not treated promptly. Early diagnosis and proper management help restore balance and prevent complications.

Hemodialysis

Hemodialysis is a medical treatment used to remove waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys are no longer able to function properly. It is commonly required in advanced stages of chronic kidney disease or kidney failure. During hemodialysis, blood is filtered through a machine and then returned to the body. The procedure helps maintain fluid balance, control blood pressure, and improve overall well-being, allowing patients to continue daily activities with proper care.

Pregnancy-related renal diseases

Pregnancy-related renal diseases are kidney conditions that develop during pregnancy or are worsened by pregnancy. These include preeclampsia, acute kidney injury, urinary tract infections, and worsening of pre-existing kidney disease. Hormonal changes, increased blood volume, and blood pressure fluctuations can place extra stress on the kidneys. Early detection through regular antenatal checkups is essential. Prompt treatment helps protect both maternal and fetal health and reduces the risk of long-term kidney complications after delivery.

Tubulopathies

Tubulopathies are a group of kidney disorders that affect the renal tubules, which are responsible for reabsorbing water, electrolytes, and nutrients from the urine. When these tubules do not function properly, it leads to imbalances in fluids, electrolytes, and acid–base levels in the body. Tubulopathies may be inherited or acquired and can occur in both children and adults. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are important to prevent complications and protect long-term kidney function.
