Kidney Failure is on the RIse

Posted: Updated:

A new study finds kidney failure is on the rise especially for the elderly.

Researchers in Canada followed almost 3 million people.

They found 1 in 40 men and 1 in 60 women will develop kidney failure if they live into their 90's.

Several conditions can lead to kidney failure including heart disease and some infections.
