What's the Life Expectancy of Dialysis pateints
When kidney disease develops to Uremia stage (End Stage Renal Failure),
patients have to undergo dialysis for a long time. Hemodialysis and peritoneal
dialysis can both be continued for over decades. However, long time dialysis
will cause many problems. Hemodiaysis is easy to cause vessel problem and
peritoneal dialysis is easy to cause infection and sclerosis.
Young patients in good physical condition can have ten, twenty or even more
years’ life expectancy if there is no obvious complication, anemia corrected,
blood pressure well controlled and primary disease is stable.
Dialysis can help get rid of the symptoms very quickly, but no one knows
exactly how long patient can live with dialysis. Dialysis is replacement therapy
for kidneys. The dialyser will work instead of the kidneys. There are many
patients die of the complications of dialysis clinically. With these
complications, there are very few patients undergoing dialysis can maintain 3-5
years’ life.
There are also many patients in Renal Failure stage ask: “ When should I
start dialysis? Is dialysis suitable for me?”
After knowing the life expectancy of dialysis, let me tell you whether you
are suitable for dialysis.
According to the research of experts group in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease
Hospital, as long as the serum creatinine is not more than 1300umol/l
(14.7mg/dl), 24hours urine volume is over 1200ml and the times of dialysis is
less than 10 times, which means the kidneys have not totally sclerosed.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can help improve blood circulation and the
state of renal ischemia and anoxia. It is a kind of external application, not
oral taking medicine. The treatment is a process of promote the rebirth of
glomerulis. By medicine reactivating, the damaged renal tissues will start the
self repair and rebuild the new nephrons. During this process, we will also use
Immunotherapy treatment to regulate the immune reaction and recover the renal
function.
If the patients have lost the chance of receiving effective treatment and
have been undergoing dialysis for a long time, kidney transplant is a better
choice for improving quality of life.
