Chronic kidney disease can develop gradually and may cause few noticeable symptoms during its earlier stages. The NIDDK guide to chronic kidney disease explains common causes, testing, and approaches used to slow kidney damage.
Patients approaching advanced kidney failure may also need information about kidney failure treatment options, including dialysis and transplant evaluation.
Nephrology and Patient Care Approach
Kidney problems often overlap with diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and medication use. Nephrology care therefore usually involves reviewing the patient’s wider medical history rather than focusing only on a single kidney test.
Evaluation may include blood tests for kidney function, urine testing, blood-pressure monitoring, and imaging when needed. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may involve medication adjustment, dietary changes, management of blood pressure or diabetes, and regular monitoring.
For people with advanced kidney disease, Dr. Muddana’s specialty also includes management of dialysis and complications associated with severe loss of kidney function. Current Medicare-related records connect her with multiple dialysis facilities in the Parkersburg region.
