The largest cause renal or 70% due to the illness of type two diabetes mellitus (DM) followed by hypertension.
According to who of type two diabetes in the world data was very rampant, and in the year 2015-2030 are greatly increased once again, particularly in Asia, including the Indonesia.
In Indonesia, it is the number of people with diabetes is approximately 8.4 million people and fourth in the world order. By 2030, this will be felt by approximately 21.3 million and still remain in sequence to four in the world after the India, China and the United States.
For him, in the United States of DM and hypertension include 75 per cent of the causes of blood washing. Investigations by various associations and the Ministry of health, basic health research indicated that the prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia has today reached 30% of the adult population.

"Then the value of the water and the body of minerals and issued a variety of hormones, including the hormone that helps the bone marrow to produce red blood cells as well as enough life and not pale," he says.
Dialysis
He said, in a great work in order that if decreased kidney or decreases much less fails then the body will experience many things which are performance wither and disappear even at its peak had to undergo a kidney replacement therapy (renal substitution or RRT), which is known as dialysis or dialysis.
Ironically, Aaron continued, if kidney damage are already more than 3 months, then other damage can no longer be allowed. At least whether early to slow the deterioration and finally threatened dialysis. This failure of adult kidney patients die by kidney disease, but because of heart problems before even they undergo dialysis.

It is just the problem, until now, there is no family donor is not ready to donate his kidney to their parents who were on dialysis.
"If a living donor is not a problem." But no one wants to donors. "But, if the donor of the body until there is currently no rules that cannot be made," said Prof. Harun.
