Can GFR be Improved in Patients with Renal Disorders?
While CKD is often progressive, certain interventions can slow the decline in GFR:
- Blood Pressure Control: Maintaining optimal blood pressure can protect kidney function. - Blood Sugar Management: Tight control of blood sugar in diabetic patients can slow CKD progression. - Dietary Modifications: Reducing protein, sodium, and phosphate intake can benefit kidney health. - Medications: ACE inhibitors and ARBs can help slow GFR decline.
