Why Is GFR Monitoring Crucial After Partial Nephrectomy? - Kidney Cancer Support Hub
Why Is GFR Monitoring Crucial After Partial Nephrectomy? Have you ever wondered why monitoring kidney function is so important after kidney surgery? In this video, we’ll explain the key reasons why keeping track of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential for your health. We’ll start by defining what GFR measures and how it reflects your kidney’s ability to filter blood effectively. We’ll discuss how GFR testing helps doctors assess the impact of surgery on your remaining kidney tissue and overall kidney function. You’ll learn why early detection of changes in GFR can prevent more serious health issues, such as chronic kidney disease, and how it guides your post-operative care. We’ll also cover how GFR levels can predict long-term health outcomes and the importance of monitoring how well your other kidney compensates for the one that was partially removed. Additionally, we’ll share how imaging tests like magnetic resonance renography can complement GFR measurements to give a complete picture of your kidney health. Whether you’ve had kidney surgery or are considering it, understanding GFR monitoring can help you and your healthcare team make informed decisions to protect your kidney function and improve your quality of life.
