Acute Renal Failure
What is the prognosis for Acute Renal Failure?

Text

Acute Renal Failure (ARF) can usually be reversed, but it can also cause permanent loss of kidney function leading to Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Older adults and people who have other serious medical conditions are less likely to recover from ARF and its complications.

My father aged 70 is running high creatinine [2.6 against a normal value of 1.4] and potassium (6 against a normal value of 5). He had been a patient of high blood pressure and Sugar for the last 10 years. Is it an indication of Acute Renal Failure? He is to undergo USG of Kidney, BUN, Lipid Profile and Urine RE tomorrow. Can he be cured?

Having Developed ARF during pregnancy does increase your chance of having renal problem during your subsequent pregnancy but under good care you of a nephrologist it can be managed well. details would be required about your previous pregnancy to get a full picture of etilogy of ARF.
