Kidneys are an organ. Which implements the most important functions in the human body - they are the conclusion of dangerous exchange products. In connection with this, disrupting the functioning of the kidneys provokes the accumulation of uric acid, urea and other harmful chemical components that begin to destroy the nervous system of man and his whole body.

Initially, the etiological factors of organ failure are eliminated, toxins are eliminated from the body. With a large loss of blood, it is transfused, and subsequently intraperitoneal hemodialysis or dialysis is performed with the aid of an artificial kidney apparatus until the organ's function is resumed. At the terminal stage, the kidney is transplanted from the donor.
The entire treatment process is carried out in a hospital, and when discharged, the patient is shown to carry out drug maintenance treatment and additional treatment.
Due to the achievements of modern medicine, acute kidney deficiency is considered a curable pathology, and functioning is fully restored about a year after initiation of therapy.
