Disease Overview

Acute Kidney Injury Care

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), previously known as acute renal failure, is a sudden loss of kidney function
that develops within hours or days. It causes the kidneys to stop filtering waste products effectively,
leading to fluid imbalance and toxin buildup in the body.

Dr. Shilpa Mandal provides prompt diagnosis and specialized nephrology care for acute kidney injury to
restore kidney function, identify the underlying cause, and prevent serious complications.

Common Symptoms to Watch For

  • Reduced urine output

  • Swelling in legs and feet

  • Fatigue and weakness

  • Shortness of breath

  • Confusion or drowsiness

  • Nausea and vomiting

Our Treatment Approach

Early intervention is essential in acute kidney injury. Dr. Shilpa Mandal focuses on identifying the
root cause and providing immediate treatment to stabilize kidney function and improve patient recovery.

Immediate Diagnosis & Monitoring

Detailed kidney function tests, urine analysis, and electrolyte monitoring for early
diagnosis and continuous assessment.

Fluid & Medication Management

Careful fluid balance management and medications to treat the underlying cause such as
infection, dehydration, or blood pressure imbalance.

Advanced Kidney Support

In severe cases, temporary dialysis support may be recommended until kidney function
improves.
