Insufficienza renale acuta

L'insufficienza renale è l'incapacità dei reni di rimuovere correttamente le tossine e altri residui di scarto del sangue.

La causa associata a questa malattia è il diabete e coaguli di sangue causati da colesterolo, diminuzione del flusso di sangue o necrosi tubulare acuta (cellule di rene danneggiato), tra gli altri. Per quanto riguarda i sintomi, la persona con insufficienza renale tende a passare sangue nelle feci, può battere più facilmente, si noti l'alito cattivo e diminuzione della sensibilità, specialmente nelle mani e piedi. Affaticamento, tremore alle mani e nausea o vomito possono essere anche altri sintomi.
