What causes Acute Renal Insuffiency; the symptoms and treatment?

Question:

What caused Renal Insuffiency, the symptoms, and what is the treatment?

Answers:
The following can lead to acute renal failure:
a blockage of urine flow out of the kidneys and into the bladder
exposure to certain drugs
exposure to toxic substances
significant loss of blood or sudden drop in blood flow to the kidneys
At first, there are no specific signs or symptoms of acute renal failure. But as the disease gets worse, many people have decreased urine output. As a result, fluid builds up in the body tissues and organs. Here are some common symptoms of acute renal failure:
irregular heartbeats, called arrhythmias
excess fluid in the abdomen, called ascites
cognitive impairments, which include an altered mental status
coma
palpitations, which are unusual sensations of the heart beating rapidly in the chest
shortness of breath
edema, which means swelling of the extremities
Diuretic medicines, known as water pills, are sometimes used to help the kidneys get rid of fluid in the body. In other situations, fluids are given to promote increased blood flow to the kidneys. If blood loss or shock has occurred, blood transfusions ay be given. Salt imbalances are monitored closely. Medicines can be given to lower elevated electrolytes levels. Dialysis may be used to replace kidney function until the acute renal failure resolves. Dialysis is a procedure where the blood flow from a person is redirected through a special machine. The machine filters the blood and then returns it to the person.
