Your kidneys make urine.
There are only 2 kidneys.
But, gosh how important they are
You may loose 2 legs, 2 arms, one eye and half of your gut and still live 20 years from now on.
You loose both kidneys and you would not live more then a week (unless getting dialysis).Dialysis is sort of artificial kidney, huge complicated machine.
Kidneys clean your blood. For an average person, if your whole body wold be all blood, it wouldbe cleaned twice a day.
An average person actually has around 5 liters of blood (little bit more than a gallon). Your heartpumps that blood through your kidneys 30 times a day . 150 liters every day.
The clean fluid is taken back to the blood and the waste is concentrated to around 1.5 liters ofurine. Hence the concentration is about 10 times.
For a normal person you would expect production of 40-60 ml of urine an hour. Right aftersurgery a person produces 30-50ml of urine an hour. Surgeons are very concerned if a patientdoes not make enough urine after any surgery. Abdominal surgery or heart surgery or brainsurgery. You name it. | Author: | Aleksandr Kavokin, MD, PhD | System: | Kidney | Subject: | Cancer | Abstract: | There are only 2 kidneys.
