However, the patients should also know that the above complications lie in the kidney damage. If the kidneys are not restored, the complications will reoccur soon even if they have been controlled very well. Therefore, to improve the prognosis of stage 5 Kidney Failure, the key is to improve renal function and restore the impaired renal function.

In stage 5 Kidney Failure, most of the nephrons have been necrotic. The chance of regaining complete renal function just like the healthy person is slight for the patients. However, if their GFR can increase to 15 ml/min or higher, the renal function will be able to maintain their normal physiological activities. In that case, the patients will be able to take part in normal social life and live a normal life.

Therefore, for the patients with stage 5 Kidney Failure, the proper treatment is the decisive factor in improving prognosis of the disease.
