Abstract


Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a gradual, irreversible kidney disease. When Such patients come to ayurveda practitioner they insist to take note of their pre investigation reports and be able to interpret it. The best measure to know kidney function in both health and illness is GFR test. One particular diagnostic criterion for CKD is a consistently low GFR. In modern science, there are limitations in the treatment of CKD. Therefore, to reduce the rising rates of death and morbidity brought on by CKD's microvascular problems that lead to cardiovascular events. It is necessary to understand how to read eGFR report & relate it in terms of ayurveda perspective to arrive at diagnosis.
