Background: Akidney damage or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) < 60ml / min/1.73m for 3 months or more irrespective of cause is define as a chronic kidney disease. In many kidney diseases, kidney damage can be ascertained by the presence of albuminuria, defined as albumin – creatinine ratio > 30 mg / gm in two of three spot urine specimens. Severity of kidney diseases is classified into five stages according to level of GFR from G1 to G5. Methods- Case series of 10 patients were managed with Ayurvedic treatment. Assessment was done on the basis of KFT, CBC, ESR and GFR Result- Improvement in GFR and Decreased Sr. creatinine and urea level will be stated in full paper. Discussion and Conclusion- After administration of Ayurvedic drug changes in KFT observed with changes in GFR, which is mention in full paper. ON this we concluded that Ayurvedic treatment is beneficial in treatment of chronic kidney failure than acute kidney failure.

Albuminuria is one of the most typical symptoms when there are derangements in the kidney functions, which may damage the kidney’s functional units, that is, nephrons. This study presents a case of a patient suffering from albuminuria who was diagnosed with crossed renal ectopia, that is, fused right kidney to the left side. A 61-year-old male patients suffered from generalized body weakness, proteinuria, disturbed sleep, and dysuria. Because of dysuria, the patient needed catheterization every fortnight. The patient had no history of addiction to smoking and alcohol. The patient had no history of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, or systemic disease except pulmonary tuberculosis 30 years back. The kidney function test, urine routine, and microscopy examination revealed albuminuria, the presence of bacteria, and elevated serum uric acid level. Crossed renal ectopia was diagnosed through a computed tomography examination. From an Ayurveda perspective, the diagnosis of Kaphaja Meha was based on the patient’s complaints, such as increased frequency of micturition and hazy/turbid urine. The treatment plan was made according to the management of Kaphaja Meha. Chandraprabha Vati, Punarnava Asava, Punarnava capsule, and SG syrup—an Ayurvedic formulation, were prescribed along with the dietary regimen. Follow-up was done seven times within 9 months. The medications and dose were altered according to the patient’s condition. The patient’s condition improved symptomatically. After the Ayurvedic intervention for 9 months and 23 days, albumin was absent in urine; serum uric acid became 4.90 mg/dL, and the glomerular filtration rate increased to 88/mL/min/1.73 m2. The patient had normal urination without needing catheterization. The case study results indicate that Ayurveda interventions can manage albuminuria and dysuria in patients with crossed renal ectopia.
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive disorder involving declining kidney functions over years. The disorder is associated with a broad spectrum of presenting features, including breathlessness, oedema, nausea, loss of appetite, weight loss, etc. CKD is highly prevalent worldwide. The solution of choice for CKD is either kidney transplantation or blood purification treatments such as haemodialysis (HD). Such medical procedure involves an arduous journey for the patients. Hence, such patients often resort to alternative medicines to improve their quality of life. Ayurveda treatment modality not only offers a good solution for the same, providing parallel support to HD patients, thereby improving their quality of life, but in some instances, it depicts auspicious results, thereby substituting the official medicine. Ayurveda caters to its vital principles, as they play a pivotal role in electing the treatment, hence an in-detail study to find the Dosha(biological humour), Dushya (affected tissues), Strotas(circulatory channels) etc., involved in the manifestation and progression of the disease, thereby formulating its pathogenesis is utmost essential because proficiently practised Ayurveda modality complying its basic concepts is capable of definitely yielding reliable & optimal results when applied for disease management.
