Abstract:
The climate on the plateau is characterized by hypobaria and hypoxia,where the natural environment is harsh,which poses a serious threat to the health and combativeness of troops.As a vital organ of the human body,the kidney has a complex vascular structure,large oxygen consumption,and is vulnerable to damage from hypoxia and other factors.This paper outlines the special changes of renal function and current diagnosis and treatment of kidney injury by taking into consideration the actual conditions on the plateau and renal blood and oxygen supply.Meanwhile,related countermeasures are recommended to facilitate the prevention and treatment of kidney injury in warfare on the plateau.
