How does glomerulonephritis interfere with fluid and electrolyte balance?
Wiki User
∙ 9y ago
In glomerulonephritis, the glomerulus in the nephrons of the kidneys become clogged and are unable to filter the plasma to turn it into urine. Your vessels become overloaded with fluid. This causes an increase in H20 because it is not being filtered out and a decrease in the concentration of Na+.
