Hypertensive renal disease with renal failure - what does this mean

Hypertensive renal disease with renal failure occurs when the blood pressure is too high for a prolonged period of time, causing damage to the small blood vessels in the kidneys. this leads to reduced kidney function and eventually kidney failure.

What happens during the disease - hypertensive renal disease with renal failure

Hypertensive renal disease is caused by chronically elevated blood pressure, which can damage the small arteries in the kidneys. this damage can lead to a decrease in blood flow to the kidneys, causing them to become unable to filter waste products from the blood. this can lead to an accumulation of toxins in the blood, which can cause further damage to the kidneys and ultimately lead to renal failure.
