Kidney Function Test For protein Status? Learn How To Use It!

Описание: Welcome to @HealthyKidneyInc! In today's video I'll be discussing Albumin levels and why it's crucial for Chronic Kidney Disease patients to keep it above 4.0.

Albumin is a protein produced by the liver and plays a crucial role in maintaining the oncotic pressure (osmotic pressure due to proteins) in the blood vessels. Low albumin levels have been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease. This is partly because albumin plays a role in maintaining vascular integrity and preventing endothelial dysfunction.

For patients undergoing dialysis, low albumin levels are associated with higher rates of morbidity and mortality. It can affect the response to dialysis treatment and increase the risk of complications such as hypotension during dialysis sessions.

In summary, low albumin levels in kidney disease contribute to fluid imbalance (edema), nutritional deficiencies, and increased risk of cardiovascular complications, all of which can significantly impact the health and quality of life of affected individuals. Therefore, monitoring and managing albumin levels are crucial aspects of managing kidney disease.
