Dr. Rana R. K. Singh, Dr. Prof. M. P. Singh

Abstract :

Chronic kidney disease is a chronic progressive and irreversible loss of renal function with decrease in G.F.R. Chronic renal failure typically corresponds to CKD stage 3–5 with irreversible reduction in nephronnumber. Aims and objectives was to assess clinical profile and determine aetiology of chronic renal failure. One hundred patients with CRF were included in Department of Medicine, Patna Medical College & Hospital, Patna in last one year. Patients of CKD stage 3–5 and of age between 16 to 60 years were included in this study. Pregnant patients, patients with HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and, patients on chemo or radiotherapy were excluded from the study. After detailed history and examination, an aetiological diagnosis was made in each patient as far as possible. CRF is widespread disease all over the country and aoad. Its etiological profile is variable. The clinical manifestations are different at different stages of disease. Detection of disease and its severity is also important because certain etiological cause may completely be removed and patient may be completely cured. In this study different clinical manifestations and its relation to the severity of the disease has been discussed.
