Dialysis is the common method to treat Kidney Failure (Renal Failure). Most
patients with kidney disease have taken dialysis and known about this treatment.
However, many patients don' t know dialysis isn't a treatment for Kidney
Failure. Dialysis will sustain our lives, but will they do some side effects or
harms to people?
1. Long-term dialysis increases the difficulties for treatment. The original
normal kidney function may gradually lose function completely.
2. Systemic organs are damaged obviously and that is irreversible.
3. Severe complications may emerge after dialysis, and the patients will have
a low-quality life and shorter life span.
4. Hypophosphatemia. For patients with drug intoxication, they don't have
high phosphorus, while there is no phosphorus in dialysate, so hypophosphatemia
will occur. If the condition is serious, respiratory insufficiency may occur.
Therefore, phosphorus should be added in dialysate to make the phosphorus
content be 1.3mmol/L so as to prevent hypophosphatemia.
5. Alkalosis. Quantities of Basic Groups can be found in dialysis to correct
metabolic acidosis. For some patients with drug intoxication that may need
dialysis, they don't have acidosis; therefore, patients may have alkalosis and
feel nausea, headache and weakness. The serious ones may have cardiac disorders
and even die suddenly.
6. Imbalance syndrome. Generally, detoxification therapy chooses conventional
dialyzer. If high efficient dialyzer is used, imbalance syndrome will occur.
But, except for dialysis and kidney transplant, is there any other treatments
for renal failure? Fortunately, immunotherapy is a new option for renal failure treatment instead of kidney transplant and dialysis in China.
It has its characteristic therapy to treat
kidney disease---Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy and Immunotherapy. This
therapy can control the occurrence of complications. Characteristic and pure
Chinese medicine can act on kidney lesion directly by penetration therapy in
vitro. The active substances in Chinese medicine can expand blood vessels and
provide blood and oxygen for the damaged cells by increasing effective systemic
perfusion. Therefore, it can relieve the state of ischemia and hypoxia and
reduce the continuous damage to renal cells.
Kidney disease itself is not terrible, what terrible are complications it
causes. Patients need to choose the correct treatment. Hope what mentioned above
is helpful. If you want to know more about dialysis or the treatment in our
hospital, you can consult us or send emails. We will do our best to help
you.
