What is End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)?


End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is the final stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized by the permanent loss of kidney function. At this stage, the kidneys are no longer able to effectively remove waste and excess fluids from the blood, necessitating dialysis or a kidney transplant to sustain life.
