Dehydration can Lead to Acute Renal Failure
Dehydration is one of important causes of Acute Renal Failure. Dehydration is a manifestation of metabolic disorder due to diseases and excessive consumption of fluid, but the body can not get enough fluid supply timely. In severe case, it can cause collapse and even threaten the patients' life. It includes hypotonic dehydration, hypertonic dehydration and isotonic dehydration.
The kidneys filter wastes from blood to maintain normal physiological activity. However, dehydration can cause reduced blood volume. As a result, the body can't adequately to circulate blood which carries wastes products to kidneys, so those wastes products accumulate in body. That is how Acute Renal Failure occurs in dehydration.
If dehydration occurs, you may experience dry mouth, thirst, dizziness and rapid heart beat, shortness of breath, confusion and swelling in feet and ankles.
Generally, Acute Renal Failure can be reversed and rarely develops into Chronic Renal Failure.
As Acute Renal Failure is caused by reduced blood volume, the primary treatment should be restoring the blood circulation. The doctors will be performed with intravenous fluid infusion to increase the circulatory blood volume.
In severe cases, dialysis will be required to treat Acute Renal Failure. Different from Chronic Renal Failure, the kidneys do not have damage injury. If the metabolic wastes and extra fluid, etc are filtered out of body by dialysis, your renal function will be reversed and dialysis will not be needed.
If you can take preventive measures to avoid dehydration, the incidence of Acute Renal Failure will reduced drastically.
If you have some diseases which may cause dehydration, you should supply water timely. Also, if you have heavy sweat and take intense exercise or other activities which can cause sweating, you should have enough fluid containing proper amount of sugar and electrolyte.
What Causes Polyuria with Chronic Renal Failure
In general, with the progression of Chronic Renal Failure, the urine output will decline gradually. However, in some cases, the patients may experience polyuriaduring a period. What Causes Polyuria with Chronic Renal Failure?
Urination is a normal physiological activity which excreting the metabolic products out of body. The more the urine output is, the more metabolic toxins are excreted out of body. However, for the patients with Chronic Renal Failure, although they have polyuria, the metabolic toxins in urine do not increase at all.
In fact, the urine is mainly composed of water and metabolic products. In Chronic Renal Failure, the glomeruli are impaired seriously. As a result, the metabolic toxins can not be discharged out of body thus building up in body. However, the water can be filtered out of the glomerular filtration membrane very easily and the filtered solution (initial urine) can be as much as 100 L in a day. When the initial urine flows through renal tubule and collecting duct, most of the urine will be reabsorbed by them. Finally, the urine output is about 1500 ml per day.
In Chronic Renal Failure, the glomerulus as well as renal tubule is damaged or the renal tubule is firstly impaired and then the damage spreads to the glomeruli. As a result, the water can not be reabsorbed normally as before and the water content in urine increases. However, the solute concentration of urine is very low. Therefore, the metabolic toxins excreted declines obviously.
Therefore, in some cases, the patients with Chronic Renal Failure may experience polyuria. In this case, the urine osmotic pressure and specific gravity has obvious decline. In severe case, the patients with Chronic Renal Failure may stay in dehydration.
Therefore, the polyuria in Chronic Renal Failure is not a good thing for them, but may be a sign of disease aggravation.
If you are a patient with Chronic Renal Failure and have polyuria, you should take relevant treatment to stop the decline in renal function. If you want to know how to reverse this abnormal phenomenon, you can leave a message below or send an e-mail to khkpcn@hotmail.com.
Life Expectancy of Stage 3 Chronic Renal Failure
In stage 3 of Chronic Renal Failure, GFR declines below 59 ml/min and the kidneys are damaged moderately. If the patients can receive proper treatment and control the complications of Chronic Renal Failure as well as keep a healthy diet, they will be able to improve and even recover their normal renal function. If so, the patients with stage 3 Chronic Renal Failure will have the same life expectancy as the healthy people.
In stage 3 of Chronic Renal Failure, the doctors usually only prescribe some medicines to relieve symptoms high blood pressure, anemia, high blood sugar etc. These measures have certain effect in delaying the progression of the disease. However, the immune complexes which cause renal injury still exist in the kidneys so they will cause continuing damage to kidneys. Also the inflammation in kidneys has impaired the kidney structure. To improve renal function fundamentally, the patients should take relevant treatment which not only can clear up the immune complexes, but also restoring the impaired kidneys. In order to achieve the therapeutic goals, immunotherapy is recommended to the patients with stage 3 Chronic Renal Failure. Immunotherapy is a complete treatment system. Once the kidneys are repaired very well, the life expectancy will be extended enormously.
In addition, a healthy diet also plays an important role in extending the life expectancy of the patients with stage 3 Chronic Renal Failure.
1. They should keep protein intake within the DRI level recommended for healthy people and increase the ratio of high quality protein in the total intake of protein.
2. Limit the intake of saturated fat and cholesterol, especially for the patients with high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart disease etc.
3. They should eat more grains, fruits and vegetables. However, if the phosphorus or potassium levels are above the normal levels, they should avoid the food rich in those minerals.
4. They should limit the intake of refined and processed foods high in sodium and eat less food with salt and sodium.
In stage 3 of Chronic Renal Failure, their illness conditions vary greatly. They should make personalized dietary plan based on the tests results. If you want to know how much protein, sodium and other minerals you should consume per day, you can send an e-mail to khkpcn@hotmail.com.
If the patients with stage 3 receive proper treatment along with a healthy daily diet, they will be able to live as long as the healthy people.
Causes of Azotemia in Chronic Renal Failure
Azotemia in Chronic Renal Failure can put much burden on kidneys and accelerate the deterioration of renal function. Therefore, it is very important for the patients with Chronic Renal Failure to prevent azotemia.
Causes of Azotemia in Chronic Renal Failure
Kidneys are responsible for filtering blood and discharging metabolic toxins by producing urine. However, in Chronic Renal Failure, for serious renal injury, the renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decline greatly. As a result, the kidneys can not excrete the metabolic products normally as before and massive of nitrogen remains in the bloodstream thus leading to azotemia.
In addition, some patients with Chronic Renal Failure have hemorrhage in other organs and system like gastrointestinal hemorrhage which can aggravate the primary azotemia. Hemorrhage can cause the whole blood volume to decrease thus resulting in renal ischemia. The insufficient blood supply to kidneys can influence the excretion ability of the kidneys. Moreover, the hemorrhage can aggravate the primary renal damage thus causing the exacerbation of azotemia.
However, in some cases, azotemia is not related to the disease. If the patients consume excess protein at a time, the kidneys can not discharge the metabolic nitrogen immediately, which also can cause transient azotemia. Once they adjust their diet, they will recover normal.
The above article has introduced the causes of azotemia in Chronic Renal Failure. Any questions, leave a message below or send an e-mail to khkpcn@hotmail.com.
Damage of Chronic Kidney Failure--CKF
Morbidity of Chronic Kidney Failure increases gradually around the world in recent years. Chronic Kidney Failure has become one of the major diseases only after cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, tumor and diabetics. Acute Kidney Failure has also becomes a public health issue all over the world.
Damage of Chronic Kidney Failure--CKF
1. Firstly, those who suffer from Kidney Failure resulting from the loss of renal function may require dialysis or kidney transplantation.
2. And much more than this, lots of patients with CKF have been died from cardiovascular diseases before they even developed to kidney failure.
3. On annual medical expenses on average, uremic patients can spend as much as about 8,000-16,000 USD, thereinto, hemodialysis around 8,000-16,000 USD while peritoneal dialysis about 10,000-16,000 USD. While high-priced treatment becomes unbearable heavy burdens for their families as well as for the society. For this reason, quite a deal of families undergo “being into poverty because of illness or return to poverty owing to the disease”.
4. Those Americans who are over the age of 40, their morbidity of suffering from CRF can be 11%.
5. 1.0% of Americans patients with ESRD (end-stage renal diseases) occupy 7.0% of medical expenses.
6. CRF and uremia cost 24.0% of total medical budgets in the United States.
7. Morbidity of CRF is 8%-9% in China. (according to a small sample survey)
8. Unawareness rate of their own Renal Diseases can reach up to 90% in China.
Developing and undeveloped countries which accounts for 80% of global population, while only 10% of patients in those countries are able to receive dialysis; hence, those patients with ESRF in developing and undeveloped countries, most of them have no chance at all to take dialysis treatment.
As the serious damage of Chronic Kidney Failure all listed above, slowing the progression of the kidney damage means a lot of delaying progression and improving prognosis. For more information, leave a message below or send an e-mail to khkpcn@hotmail.com.
Top 10 Chronic Renal Failure Symptoms You should Know
Chronic Renal Failure(CRF) also called Chronic Kidney Failure describes a gradual loss of renal function. Top 10 Symptoms of Chronic Kidney Failure are as below:
1. Gastrointestinal Symptoms
Gastrointestinal performance is the earliest and most common symptoms, and they would aggravate the condition of Chronic Renal Failure. Early symptoms of patients are poor appetite, a feeling of fullness; vomiting, nausea, hiccup or diarrhea occurs afterwards; in those patients with advanced Chronic Renal Failure, urinary stink in mouth along with oral mucosal erosion or ulcer, swollen parotid gland or even with serious digestive tract bleeding occur. Chronic Renal Failure often develops with gastritis, duodenitis or ulcer.
2. Mental or nervous system
Asthenia, dizziness, attention-deficit disorder, hypomnesis or somnipathy etc. in early stage; and after that, indifference, taciturnity, disturbance of consciousness or unconscious limbs movement etc. appear; uremic encephalopathy occurs in the end-stage of Chronic Renal Failure, symptoms are drowsiness, deliration, delusion, stupor, gatism or even coma etc.
3. Blood system
Anemia occurs in most patients as serum creatinine increases. Bleeding is also pretty common including subcutaneous bleeding, epistaxis, menorrhagia, digestive tract bleeding or clotting factors dysfunction etc. Numeration of leukocytes is usually normal while some cases have decreasing in granulocytes or lymphocytes.
4. Cardiovascular system
Hypertension occurs pretty frequently with uneven degrees, but normally the systolic pressure and diastolic pressure increase without exception, while in certain severe cases, hypertensive encephalopathy occurs. Other severe symptoms include uremic pericarditis, uremic myocardiopathy, heart failure or ischemic heart disease and so on.
5. Respiratory tract
Patients with metabolic acidosis often have shortness of breath or even Kussmaul respiration. Retention of metabolic materials along with immune hypofunction is easily complicated with respiratory tract infections, which cause bronchitis, pneumonia, pleurisy complicated with pleural effusion. Interstitial pneumonia is also common.
6. Motion system
Uremic myopathy coupled with renal osteodystrophy which is short for renal osteopathy. There are only few symptoms in clinic which includes skeletal pain or inconvenient walk.
7. Endocrine dyscrasia
Lacking of anaphrodisia or invirility occurs in men while menostasis or infertility in women.
8. Immune dysfunction
Septicemia easily develops as the occurrence of immune dysfunction.
9. Skin symptoms
Patients with sallow complexion, mild edema, dry skin, furfuration, reluster or chromatosis, refractory skin itch, petechia and so on.
10. Imbalance with water, electrolytes and acid-base
Dehydration or water intoxication
Hyponatremia or hypernatremia
Hyperkalemia or hypokalemia
Hypocalcemia or hyperphosphatemia
Hypermagnesemia
Metabolic acidosis
Chronic Renal Failure is the interaction results due to progression of primary and secondary renal diseases. CRF itself is also the pathological and physiological processes of progressive development, so CRF would inevitably develop to ESRF. Accordingly, to slow down CRF progression as well as to improve patients' life quality, with the purpose of postponing ESRF have become a focus of research.
If you have CRF or any of the signs or symptoms above have bothered you for a long time, please take it seriously. You can Email us to khkpcn@hotmail.com.It's our pleasure to answer any of your CRF questions.
What's the Most Effective Treatment for Chronic Renal Failure
What's the Most Effective Treatment for Chronic Renal Failure? This is the most concerned issues for patients. At the same time, how to slow down the progression of Chronic Renal Failure to uremia becomes the key point.
Generally speaking, patients with Chronic Renal Failure have already lost most of their kidney functions or are going to lose their kidney functions. If you had sudden or acute kidney failure, you may need hemodialysis only for a short time until your kidneys recover. But most people with chronic kidney failure need hemodialysis for the rest of their lives unless they can get a kidney transplant. This makes dialysis become a matter of when and never be gotten rid of.
So does it make any sense to carry on our costly treatments as Chronic Renal Failure develops to ESRF eventually? Does it doom to become uremia sooner or later? Is there any medication which can remedy Chronic Renal Failure effectively
According to a great deal of researches in clinic, the treatment only address symptoms but not root causes. The main pathological cause of Chronic Renal Failure is the fibrosis of damaged kidneys. Healthy kidney tissues are replaced by fibrosis tissues scar, consequently, nephrons gradually disappear lead to the renal failure.
There is no therapy focusing on renal fibrosis in conventional treatment. The conventional treatment addresses symptoms rather than root causes. Therefore, traditional drugs cannot qualify enough for anti-fibrosis.
Aiming at this find, we extract traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) active substances from traditional Chinese medicine formula, which makes the TCM active ingredients to be fully utilized. This is Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. We also find out that the key point slowing down the progression of Chronic Renal Failure is blocking renal fibrosis. Micro-Chinese Medicine is an externally applied therapy, which is safe and has no side effects through years of clinical application.
How to remedy Chronic Renal Failure in most effective ways?
A. In early stage---grasp your best chance for timely and early treatment.
The earlier the disease is remedied, the better the treatment will be.
B. Long-term protection which means protecting your kidneys for a long run.
C. Focusing on root cause rather than symptoms
D. Association combined Chinese medicines along with western medicines. Based on Chinese medicine and complemented by western medicine.
Those are the explanations of most effective treatment for Chronic Renal Failure all above, if you have any doubts or want to know more about our Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, please don't hesitate to Email me to khkpcn@hotmail.com.
