Michelle Ceniceros, Eastland Dialysis Center’s Biomed Technician, presented Eastland Memorial Hospital’s July Lunch & Learn program - Kidney Disease and Early Detection, focusing on the symptoms for early detection of kidney disease.

To begin, Ms. Ceniceros reviewed what do kidney’s do and their importance to our health.

According to information available, kidneys remove wastes and extra fluid from the body and acid that is produced by the cells of the body, and maintain a healthy balance of water, salts, and minerals— such as sodium, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium—in the blood. Without this balance, nerves, muscles, and other tissues in the body may not work normally. Kidneys also make hormones that help control blood pressure, make red blood cells and keep bones strong and healthy The kidneys of people with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) gradually lose their ability to filter wastes, extra salt, and fluid from the blood properly. CKD can lead to end-stage kidney disease - total and permanent kidney failure that requires a kidney transplant or blood-filtering treatments called dialysis.
