CKD STAGES

𝗖𝗞𝗗 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗚𝗘𝗦:

🔴 Stage 1 Chronic Kidney Disease:

Stage 1 of chronic kidney disease is rarely ever diagnosed or discovered on its own. At this stage, the person suffers from kidney damage but his GFR rate remains normal 90 ml/min or higher. There are no symptoms at this stage, and the disease is generally discovered by accident if the patient is tested for other chronic diseases like hypertension or diabetes. Other chances of detection can be revelation of kidney damage during ultrasound, protein or blood in urine although presence of blood in urine is generally assumed to be indicative of urinary tract infection, and presence of protein can be calculated by testing urine samples, presence of high amount of creatinine or urea in blood and so on.

If chronic kidney disease is discovered at this stage, a person can have a long, and healthy life if he/she takes proper medication to slow down the progress of the disease as well as changes his/her lifestyle to be more kidney friendly.

🔴 Stage 2 Chronic Kidney Disease:

Stage 2 of chronic kidney disease is rarely ever diagnosed or discovered on its own. At this stage, the person suffers from kidney damage with a slightly lower GFR rate ranging between 60-89 ml/min or higher. There are no symptoms at this stage, and the disease is generally discovered by accident if the patients is tested for other chronic diseases like hypertension or diabetes. Other chances of detection can be revelation of kidney damage during ultrasound, protein or blood in urine although presence of blood in urine is generally assumed to be indicative of urinary tract infection, and presence of protein can be calculated by testing urine samples, presence of high amount of creatinine or urea in blood and so on.

If chronic kidney disease is discovered at this stage, a person can have a long, and healthy life if he/she takes proper medication to slow down the progress of the disease as well as changes his/her lifestyle to be more kidney friendly as well as plans for regular blood protein and creatinine tests.

🔴 Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease:

At Stage 3 of Chronic Kidney Disease, the GFR rate ultimately comes down to range between 30-59 ml/min with moderate kidney damage. The body starts showing symptoms of kidney failure like the rise of uremia or waste material in the blood. A patient at this point may develop anemia, high blood pressure, have swollen feet and legs, bloody/dark/orange urine, back pain caused by pain in kidneys, sleeplessness and restlessness due to muscle cramps. If a patient has already reached this stage he/she must immediately consult a doctor and start on medications to slow the development of this disease, at this stage the patient also requires major lifestyle changes.

🔴 Stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disease:

At the 4th stage of Chronic Kidney Disease a person suffers from extensive kidney damage with the GFR coming down to range between 15-30 ml/min. At this stage the patient suffers from the rise of uremia in the blood and may even suffer from the deposition of uremic frost on the skin. Unique symptoms apart from all the symptoms mentioned in stage 3 of the disease include nausea or vomiting, swollen face especially in the morning, loss of appetite, metallic taste in mouth, foul breath because of the presence of ammonia deposits in the body, confusion and lack of concentration. If a person has reached this stage, they are already very close to kidney failure, they must consult a doctor as well as a dietician for a strict diet plan.

🔴 Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease:

Stage 5 is also known as end stage renal failure, at this stage the kidneys have lost nearly all their function and the GFR level has reached below 15 ml/min. A patient at this stage can survive through regular dialysis for some time but would eventually require a kidney transplant for further survival. Symptoms of this stage include all the symptoms from all previous stages along with tingling of nerves, skin pigmentation, change in skin colour and so on. At this stage, it is advisable to entrust the patient’s complete care to a nephrologist.
