The most important nutrients for you to watch are: Protein “ depending on your kidney function and treatment, you may need to either limit or increase protein intake. Because your kidneys are not functioning properly, protein can build up in your blood. Eating less protein decreases strain on your kidneys. However, your body still needs protein. Your doctor will recommend a daily protein level and ask a dietitian to help you plan meals. If you begin hemodialysis or have a transplant , your protein needs will change.

Male urinary system Atheroembolic renal disease Definition Atheroembolic renal disease (AERD) refers to an inflammatory reaction in the small blood vessels of the kidneys. It occurs when cholesterol crystals from atherosclerotic plaques (lipid and cholesterol plaques in the walls of blood vessels) break off and move to the kidneys. It often results in irreversible damage to the kidney tissue. If severe enough, it may result in end stage renal disease. Alternative Names Renal disease - atheroembolic; Cholesterol embolization syndrome; Atheroemboli - renal; Atherosclerotic disease - renal Causes AERD results from atherosclerotic plaque, the source of cholesterol crystals. A diseased, atherosclerotic aorta is the most common cause of AERD. The syndrome is most often begins following direct mechanical injury to the plaque, causing the release of the cholesterol crystals into the blood stream. Thus, cardiac catheterization is a common cause, as is direct injury during aortic surgery.

LIVING WELL WITH KIDNEY DISEASE W hat do kidneys do? The kidneys are two of the body' s most important organs. They are responsible for filtering the blood and eliminating waste products and excess water in the form of urine. Kidneys also help regulate blood pressure, make new red blood cells and maintain healthy bones. The kidneys are located below the rib cage and next to both sides of the spine (backbone). They are shaped like kidney beans. Some people are born with one kidney, which may be larger than average. The body can function with one healthy kidney. What are the reasons for kidney disease? Diabetes Kidney disease can be a complication of diabetes. Poorly controlled blood sugar damages the blood vessels in the kidneys; diabetes is one of the leading causes of kidney disease. Hypertension (high blood pressure) Poorly controlled hypertension can damage the small vessels within the kidneys. The kidneys then become diseased and will no longer function normally.

The Internet Vet Column Tue, Feb 28 1995 This Internet Vet Column comes to you from Dr. Derek Duval. Feline Kidney Disease I received a number of letters requesting information about kidney disease in cats and how diet may be important in its cause and treatment. Many cats will develop renal (kidney) insufficiency as they age. With age the kidneys will loose nephrons (the functional unit of the kidney) and renal failure will result. The kidney (like the liver) has a large built in reserve capacity. By the time we see signs are renal insufficiency 60-75% of the renal mass is lost. The first signs are usually loss of the ability to concentrate the urine which results in increased drinking and urinating. With more damage the toxins that are normally filtered by the kidney begin to build up and can cause depression, decreased appetite, a foul odor to the breath, oral ulceration, and vomiting. In the end stage of renal failure, a low body temperature, seizures, and severe depression and coma can result. In the urine we look for signs of infection, ability to concentrate, and loss of protein. When cats with healthy kidneys become dehydrated the urine will become concentrated. Cats with renal insufficiency cannot concentrate their urine despite being dehydrated. Therefore, a urine sample is very important to the evaluation of renal disease.

Rarely, the syndrome may occur spontaneously.
