On the occasion of World Kidney Day 2025, renowned nephrologist and kidney transplant specialist Dr. Rajan Isaacs, founder of Deepak Kidney Care Centre, emphasized the urgent need for early detection and prevention of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).

Ludhiana, March 13, 2025: On the occasion of World Kidney Day 2025, renowned nephrologist and kidney transplant specialist Dr. Rajan Isaacs, founder of Deepak Kidney Care Centre, emphasized the urgent need for early detection and prevention of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).
With nearly 850 million people worldwide affected by CKD, the disease is a growing health challenge. If left undetected, CKD can progress silently to kidney failure, leading to severe health complications and premature death.
"Kidney disease often remains unnoticed until it reaches an advanced stage. Simple tests like Serum Creatinine, eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate), and Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (uACR) can help detect kidney disease early and prevent further complications," said Dr. Isaacs.
8 Golden Rules for Kidney Health
During the awareness campaign, Dr. Isaacs shared practical tips for maintaining kidney health:
Stay physically active
Monitor and manage blood sugar levels
Stay hydrated
Limit alcohol consumption
Eat a balanced, low-salt diet
Regularly check blood pressure
Avoid smoking
Use painkillers cautiously
Who Should Get Tested?
Dr. Isaacs urged those at high risk of kidney disease to undergo regular health screenings, especially individuals with:
Diabetes
High blood pressure
Cardiovascular disease
Obesity
Family history of kidney disease
Other risk factors include acute kidney injury, autoimmune diseases, pregnancy-related kidney disease, and frequent kidney stones.
Simple Tests for Early Detection
High-risk individuals can detect kidney disease early through:
Blood Pressure Monitoring
Body Mass Index (BMI) Check
Urine Test for Albumin (uACR)
Blood Tests for Serum Creatinine and eGFR
Blood Sugar Testing
Community Initiatives
As part of the campaign, Deepak Kidney Care Centre will offer free kidney health check-ups and public awareness sessions to promote early detection and healthy habits.
"By raising awareness and encouraging timely testing, we can help prevent kidney disease and improve lives," added Dr. Isaacs.
