Disease/Condition Glossary

Hyperphosphatemia: Hyperphosphatemia is an electrolyte disorder characterised by an elevated phosphate level in the blood. Healthy kidneys balance phosphorus levels in the body by removing excess phosphorus from the blood. If you have kidney disease, your kidneys may not be able to eliminate excess phosphorus. It has the potential to be extremely harmful to one's health. High phosphorus levels do not always cause symptoms. Extra phosphorus in the blood can eliminate calcium from the bones and other parts of the body, resulting in low calcium (hypocalcemia).
