CKD may result from a good array of distinct pathophysiologic processes related to abnormal kidney function and a progressive decline in GFR. the foremost common causes are diabetic nephropathy and hypertension. The direct management of CKD emphases on renin angiotensin aldosterone blockade and vital sign control. CKD may result in several complications like anaemia, mineral bone disease, acidosis, potassium and sodium imbalance, fluid imbalance, and malnutrition.
