Question: 1 / 190

What is renal failure?

A mild kidney condition

A type of liver disease

A critical illness resulting in the sudden cessation of kidney function

Renal failure is a critical illness that occurs when the kidneys suddenly stop functioning. It is not a mild condition like option A nor is it a type of liver disease like option B. Option D is incorrect because a urinary tract infection only affects the urinary system and not the kidneys. It is important to correctly identify renal failure as it requires immediate medical attention.

A urinary tract infection
