Virtual Care in Nephrology: An In-Depth Retrospective Analysis of Outcomes Using the Reset Kidney Health Model
1Reset Kidney Health, New York, NY 10001, USA.
Abstract:
The advent of virtual healthcare has reshaped patient management paradigms across various medical domains. This analysis examines the potential effectiveness of treating chronic kidney disease (CKD) using Reset Kidney Health's virtual, multidisciplinary, and integrated care approach. The pilot study concentrated on evaluating the impact of this care model on the estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) of CKD patients over an eight-month period. The analyses showed that a majority of patients managed with the Reset Kidney Health Model experienced stability or improvements in their kidney function, as measured by eGFR. While this pilot study has several limitations, these early results suggest the potential benefits of digital healthcare innovations in chronic disease management and provide an argument for the broader integration of virtual care strategies in healthcare systems. These initial findings could lay the groundwork for further research into effectively integrating digital healthcare in chronic disease management.

Factors Affecting Renal Clearance: Renal Impairment
One condition associated with renal failure is uremia. Uremia is characterized by impaired glomerular filtration and fluid accumulation in the body. This condition hinders the renal clearance of drugs, resulting in drug accumulation and potential...

Dialysis
Acute kidney injury develops suddenly and can be caused by pre-renal causes (e.g., hypovolemia, shock), intrinsic renal causes (e.g., acute tubular necrosis), or post-renal causes (e.g., urinary obstruction). In contrast, chronic renal failure progresses gradually over time and is often...
