Managing Diabetic Nephropathy: The Expertise of Our Specialists at the World Diabetes Centre
Understanding Diabetic Nephropathy
Diabetic nephropathy is a serious complication of diabetes characterized by damage to the kidneys due to prolonged high blood sugar levels. Over time, this damage can lead to kidney failure, necessitating dialysis or kidney transplantation. Managing diabetic nephropathy requires a multifaceted approach aimed at controlling blood sugar levels, managing blood pressure, and protecting kidney function.
