WCN25-1360 SYMPTOMS OF HEAT STRESS PREDICT SERUM CREATININE RISES IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE DURING HEAT WAVE CONDITIONS IN UTTAR PRADESH, INDIA
Heat waves are defined as temperatures of 40ºC in the plains, with temperature departure greater than 4-6ºC from the usual in at least two recording stations in the region, and such heat waves being recorded across several stations across central and eastern Uttar Pradesh in the month of May 2023 and 2024, during which period, the present study was conducted. We hypothesized that transient serum creatinine increases occur among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) conforming to the CKD of unknown etiology (CKDu) phenotype, during heat wave conditions.
