Acute Renal Failure (ARF)

ARF TYPES CAUSES SYMPTOMS DIAGNOSIS COMPLICATIONS TREATMENT

Complications

Complications of renal failure can affect the entire body, including the digestive system, heart, lungs, and nervous system. Infection is one of the most common complications because the body's immune system may stop working properly.
Another serious complication, Uremic syndrome (uremia) can cause severe nausea, confusion, psychosis, irregular heart beats and fluid in lungs. Fatigue and weight loss are common symptoms of uremia. Anemia can also occur from renal failure. Other complications are electrolyte imbalance including hyperkalemia which can cause cardiac-irregularities and cardiac-arrest if unchecked.

Most causes of acute renal failure can be treated and the kidney function will return to normal with time. But at the same time it can cause permanent loss of kidney function leading to Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
