What Is the Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis?

What Is the Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis for kidney failure patient. Dialysis can be pide into hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, they are all dialysis, but the difference is great. The difference not only lies on cost and condition but also on its essence. Then, What Is the Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis The first difference between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis  is  their  principle. What is the hemodialysis? Hemodialysis is to establish a vascular pathway outside the human body, the blood into the dialysis machine, the blood of the waste and toxins removed, and then returned to the body. Equivalent to using dialysis machine as a "artificial kidney". Dialysis machine used in the basic principle of "dispersion phenomenon", that is, blood flow in the dialysis machine, the blood of electrolytes, trace elements can be returned to the patient through the semi-permeable membrane, and larger albumin...

Dietary considerations of diabetic nephropathy

Diabetic nephropathy is a serious illness of diabetes, diabetic patients are generally in the diet prevention, but in addition to should pay attention to diet taboos, they should pay more attention to patients' diet,  diabetic nephropathy  is every one harmful to people's health, if the diet is not cautious, can cause colossal difficulty. So what matters need to pay attention to diabetic nephropathy diet? Let's put happening gone a express at. 1 the first is to inform the intake of eatable salt. In general, diabetic patients should pay attention to eat less salt, diabetic nephropathy patients eat more salt will totaling taking place blood pressure, it will molest the kidneys. More likely to blinking the kidney. So to eat less salt. 2 limit protein intake. Special attention paid to limit forest proteins, such as beans, tofu, soy milk and accumulation soy products. Should be take over to accrue some high-mood protein intake, such as fish, thin meat, but not excessive. ...

nephrotic syndrome nursing care plan

Nephrotic syndrome  is not an independent disease, but by a variety of kidney disease caused by the following common performance of a group of clinical syndrome: a large number of proteinuria, hypoproteinemia, water and hyperlipidemia. Do the nursing of patients with nephrotic syndrome and take the appropriate nursing measures to improve the quality of patients to overcome the physical and mental health, prevention of complications and promote disease recovery has a role can not be ignored. 1.Nursing care plan of nephrotic syndrome diet Nephrotic syndrome patients with hyperlipidemia can increased blood viscosity, hypoproteinemia, caused by insufficient effective blood volume, platelet hyperfunction and nephrotic syndrome,further exacerbating the hypercoagulable state, the thrombosis prone, the blood flow is slow, intravascular membrane damage, blood hypercoagulability is one of the three major factors of thrombosis, so the diet intervention on nephrotic syndrome patients, e...

What drinks are good for protecting kidneys?

Here are some friends with similar question as we.   What drinks are good for protecting kidneys?  In this article, we will list some foods and drinks to protect kidneys. 1. Cranberry juice It contains a compound that stops bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract wall and traveling up the ureter into the kidneys. Drinking a glass of cranberry juice may reduce the frequency of urinary tract infections that can turn into kidney infections. 2. Lemon and lime citrus juice They are also beneficial because they contain rich citrate. Citrate helps prevent calcium from binding with minerals in the kidneys, creating crystals that form kidney stones. 3. Water Water aids the kidneys to discharge wastes and toxins from the blood and remove them from the body as urine. Too little water declines kidney function, reducing the ability of the kidneys to filter and release any settled minerals that may lead to stones. 4. Beet juice Beet juice contains betaine, a benefici...

nephrotic syndrome nursing care plan

1.dietary intervention Nephrotic syndrome patients with hyperlipidemia can increased blood viscosity, hypoproteinemia, caused by insufficient effective blood volume, platelet hyperfunction and  nephrotic syndrome ,further exacerbating the hypercoagulable state, the thrombosis prone, the blood flow is slow, intravascular membrane damage, blood hypercoagulability is one of the three major factors of thrombosis, so the diet intervention on nephrotic syndrome patients, effective treatment of hyperlipidemia, prevention of thrombosis has important clinical significance, health education can strengthen the patients understanding of the complications of the disease , so as to establish effective compliance. First of all, responsible for the kidney disease patients repeatedly stressed the strict restriction of dietary fat and cholesterol intake. Fat content of not more than 30% of the total, cholesterol is not more than 300mg/d, encourage patients to eat more foods rich in unsaturated fa...

The clinical efficacy of Chinese medicine treatment of uremia

Uremia is a serious kidney disease that because of loss of kidney function caused by water and electrolyte, acid-base imbalance caused by the accumulation of metabolic. This disease can cause heart failure, acid-base balance disorders, skin itching, pericarditis, bleeding, anemia, infection and other complications, most of the uremic patients will be combined with a variety of complications, and the prognosis is poor, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients and even life-threatening patients. At present, hemodialysis technology in the clinical application of uremia is very extensive, since the clinical application, how to improve  effection of hemodialysis, improve the quality of life of patients has always been a hot topic in clinical research. The use of high-performance blood flow filter, the application of high-flow dialyzer or high-performance dialysis devices are methods that often used to improve effection of hemodialysis, but these methods are difficult to ...

What are the complications of uremic patients after dialysis?

Unbalanced syndrome:  This dialysis complication of uremia refer to the process of dialysis or shortly after dialysis , the emergence of the nerve system to show the main symptoms, such as anxiety, headache, vomiting, blood pressure, severe lethargy, epilepsy-like attack, Wake up and die. The cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications: is an important cause of death in uremic maintenance dialysis patients. For example, low blood pressure is more common, due to excessive dehydration caused by excessive use of blood volume is not enough, also found in dialysis membrane rupture or other causes of bleeding, severe arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, pericardial hemorrhage and acute left heart failure. Is dialysis complication of uremia. The edema: the kidneys can not clear the body of excess water and lead to liquid retention in the body tissue gap, early only in the ankle and eyelid edema, disappeared after the break, if the development of persistent or systemic edema, has been s...

What is Hypertensive Nephropathy?

Hypertensive nephropathy is due to long-term increase in blood pressure in patients, gradually lead to renal arteriosclerosis, renal unit atrophy or disappear, clinically this high blood pressure caused by changes in renal structure and function, known as hypertensive nephropathy. Hypertensive nephropathy can lead to polyuria, nocturia, and then reduce urine output. If you can not get active and effective treatment, will develop uremia. Treatment of hypertension nephropathy on the premise that the blood pressure must first be reduced to normal, to avoid the continued damage to the kidneys, while recovering damaged renal function, so as to achieve complete recovery. what is renal hypertension?     Unlike hypertensive nephropathy, renal hypertension is caused by the disease of the kidney itself, mainly due to renal parenchymal disease or renal artery stenosis, obstruction caused. Accounting for adult hypertension of 5% to 10%, is the main component of secondary hypertension...

Why high blood pressure cause kidney disease?

High blood pressure can cause kidney damage , which is commonly referred to as hypertensive nephropathy. This king of nephropathy generally have two kind of clinical type,that is benign renal arteriolar sclerosis and malignant arteriolar sclerosis.Benign renal arteriolosclerosis is a long-term hypertension that leads to renal arteriolar hyalinosis,causing renal ischemic changes, glomerular and renal tubular dysfunction, and ultimately can cause renal fibrosis and  renal failure , pathological changes and hypertension duration and severity. Malignant renal arteriolosclerosis is due to the rapid development of hypertension caused by renal artery diffuse fibrinoid necrosis, resulting in rapid deterioration of renal function. The vast majority of patients with hypertension and renal changes can occur, with the increase of age, glomerular sclerosis also increased, but often it is a slow process, hidden, easily ignored, until the patient had nausea, weakness, nocturia and other symp...
