Postprocedural renal failure - what does this mean
Postprocedural renal failure occurs when the kidneys are unable to adequately filter waste products from the body due to damage caused by a medical procedure. this may be due to a direct injury to the kidneys, obstruction of the urinary tract, or a reaction to a medication given during the procedure.
What happens during the disease - postprocedural renal failure
Postprocedural renal failure is a condition that occurs when the kidneys are unable to adequately filter waste products from the blood due to damage caused by a medical procedure. this damage can be caused by direct injury to the kidneys, such as from a biopsy or surgery, or by decreased blood flow to the kidneys resulting from a procedure such as angiography or an organ transplant. in either case, the kidneys are unable to remove waste products from the body, leading to a buildup of toxins in the blood, which can cause a variety of symptoms and eventually lead to renal failure.
