Chronic Kidney Disease and End-Stage Kidney Disease
End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) is the final stage of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). When you have ESKD, your kidneys can no longer keep up with your body's needs. As a result, dangerous levels of fluid, waste, and electrolytes can build up in your body. Fortunately, dialysis or a kidney transplant can replace the functions of your damaged kidneys.
