Kidney diseases are «silent killers» that can significantly affect the quality and duration of your life. Chronic kidney disease means your kidneys are damaged and cannot filter blood the way they are supposed to. The disease is called "chronic" because kidney damage occurs slowly over a long period. This damage may result in the accumulation of toxic degradation products in your body and may lead to other health problems.

Typically, the disease progresses discreetly, often disrupting most kidney functions before symptoms develop. Early detection of kidney function disorders is crucial, as it allows the initiation of necessary treatment for irreversible deterioration or complications.
