Life expectancy and progression rate
My father has recently been diagnosed with CKD. His creatinine level was 1.26 before treatment started, and after 2 months it increased to 1.36. After a month of treatment, his Urine ACR shows 104. What can be expected in terms of life expectancy and progression rate in this case?
Hi, creatinine and urine acr is just 2 variables. Life expectancy is not related only to these 2 variables if the creatinine improve and urine protein is less then the outcome will be better any be equal to normal. So it depends on many factors age, underlying problems, compliance to treatment and response the treatment
