What are the reasons that can cause PKD patients death? Renal Insufficiency
which can be found in every age is the main cause of patients’ death. As for
patients older than 60, 45% of them may get the illness condition developed into
end stage Renal Failure. According to foreign investigation, the average time of
renal function injury developing into End Stage Renal Failure is about 10 years.
Once glomerular filtrating rate decreases to less than 50ml per minute, its
descent speed may be 5ml per minute in a year.
Renal Insufficiency is mainly caused by cysts which can compress renal
parenchyma and reduce blood flow in renal blood vessel and effective filtrating
rate. In addition, interstitium fibrosis and declined concentrated function and
excreting ability caused by renal tubular pathological changes as well as renal
blood vessel sclerosis caused by Hypertension can block toxin being filtrated,
and then Renal Insufficiency appears.
Besides, other factors may also affect renal function aggravated speed.
Firstly, gene: PKD patients who suffer from gene mutation will die 10 years
earlier than patients who do not suffer from gene mutation.
Secondly, inheritance factor: patients who inherit this disease from mother
will die earlier than patients who get this disease from father.
Thirdly, gender: female can be later than male, except for patients who
suffer from Liver Cyst at the same time.
Fourthly, Haematuria, Albuminuria as well as urinary tract infection and
other infections can aggravate renal function. Besides, pregnancy can also
affect renal function.
These factors can be independent or co-existent, both of which can lead to
renal function injury.
All the above factors may cause patients death. Patients should pay more
attention on these factors. The key reason of PKD recurrence is that renal
fibrosis can not be blocked from its root cause and renal function can not be
protected effectively. As for treatment of PKD, Micro-Chinese Medicine
Osmotherapy is an effective treatment to treat PKD through activating blood and
dredging channels, removing blood stasis and eliminating toxin as well as
repairing and renewing. It has helped many PKD patients to live a normal life
with illness.
