Abstract
Introduction: Chronic diseases have become a major public health problem. Chronic diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in India and other low and middle-income countries. Kidney damage is defined as “pathologic abnormalities of marker of damage, including abnormalities in blood or urine tests or imaging studies.”
Aims and Objective: This study aims to estimate C-reactive protein, urea, creatnine levels, which is an indicator of inflammation and prognonosis in CKD because this will help the medical staff for proper management with less morbidity and mortality.
Methods of Assay: Estimation of serum C-reactive protein, serum urea, and creatinine will be assessd by using commercially reagents and kits.
Result: CKD is more common in old age group or chance of that majority of our patients where male and in the age group of 10-60 getting CKD increases as the age of person increases. The male constituted about 60% of the total. While female patients constituted about 40% of total patients.
Conclusion: It is concluded that maximum number of chronic kidney diseases occur in the man than women. Age prone to kidney diseases is 41-50 years. CKD is directly proportional to age.
