1 Uremic coma can occur in the later stages of uremic syndrome (uremia), a serious complication of renal (kidney) failure. It can cause severe nausea, confusion, psychosis, irregular heart beats, and pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs). Uremia is caused by the accumulation in the blood of nitrogen-bearing waste products (urea) that are usually excreted in the urine. Urea is toxic to the body and can affect all the major organs including the brain. Symptoms usually only appear when kidney function falls to less than 10 percent of normal. Kidney failure can be chronic or acute. It can be caused by a variety of different things. The most common are diabetes, high blood pressure and inflammation or obstuction of the kidney.
2 Chronic interstitial nephritis is a kidney disorder caused by inflammation of the tubules and the spaces between the tubules and the glomeruli, which results in a reduction in kidney function.
