Fluid Imbalance & Electrolyte Disturbances

With Northlake Nephrology Institute

Understanding Fluid Imbalance & Electrolyte Disturbances

All forms of chronic kidney disease, once advanced enough, can cause fluid overload along with a number of electrolyte disturbances. In other words, these problems can be secondary to the CKD itself. Aside from Chronic Kidney Disease, genetically based disorders of ion channels/transporters can cause severe electrolyte derangements, as well sa gastrointestinal disorders, endocrine disorders, eating disorders, and prescription drug side effects. At Northlake Nephrology Institute, we recognize the complexity of these conditions and their potential impact on your health. Our experienced team is skilled in diagnosing and treating these disturbances, ensuring your body’s fluid and electrolyte levels are restored to their optimal balance for overall well-being.
