End-stage renal disease, also known as chronic kidney disease (CKD), specifically the fifth stage of CKD.The fifth stage of chronic kidney disease can be termed as a complete kidney failure. The GFR is below 15 ml/min and in some cases the patient may have a GFR of 0 ml/min. Headache and change in skin color add to the symptoms that already exist in the fourth stage. With the failure of kidneys, the urination of the patient decreases to little or almost nil. A kidney transplant is the most recommended treatment at the fourth stage of CKD, though the patient may be kept on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis for a certain period of time.
