1 What is kidney disease?
The kidneys filter waste products from the blood,which are then removed from the body through urine. Kidney disease occurs when the nephrons (tiny filtering units inside the kidneys) become damaged. Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) refers to any condition that affects this cleaning process for 3 months or longer.
2 CKD and diabetes
Kidney disease that is caused by diabetes is called Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD) or Diabetic Nephropathy. Up to half of people with diabetes will end up with DKD. A patient’s risk of developing the disease is related to how long they’ve been living with diabetes. High blood glucose levels eventually damage the blood vessels, and when this damage occurs in the kidneys, it leads to DKD.
