What are the side effects after chronic kidney disease dialysis? Most chronic
kidney disease patients especially those who are in stage 3 and stage 4 have
already been under dialysis. Dialysis no doubt is a means which can help
discharge the toxins such as serum creatinine, urea acid, blood urea nitrogen,
and so on, thus prolonging the life of CKD patients for dialysis works like a
machine, which can replace the work of kidney.
However, just as the saying goes, every coin has two sides. The same goes for
dialysis. In other words, long time dialysis can lead to side effect.
Firstly, dialysis can not replace the kidney completely, for it can not
discharge all the toxins in the blood as completely as dialysis. Long time
dialysis can also lead to the atrophic kidney. After that, there will be less
blood flow in the kidney, so urine can not form accordingly. So chronic kidney
disease patients have to take dialysis more times than before.
Secondly, dialysis can also cause hypophosphatemia. What's worse, for some
patients, they may have insufficiency of breathing. If we add phosphorus
1.3mmol/L in the dislysate, we can avoid hypophosphatemia.
Thirdly, chronic kidney disease patients who are under dialysis can also lead
to the alkalosis. A large amount of basic group can correct the metabolic
acidosis in patients with renal failure, while those who are poisoned as a
result of medicine and toxins do not have acidosis, so alkalosis can come into
being and patients may also feel nausea, headache, weakness. What’s worse, some
may even have cardiac arrhythmia.
In addition, dialysis can also lead to some complications. So an increasing
number of chronic kidney disease patients are searching a new therapy.
As a matter of fact, to treat chronic kidney disease, besides dialysis, we
should also take immunotherapy. It is pointed out by kidney disease experts that
nearly 99% of chronic kidney disease is caused by immune disorder. And generally, the immune therapy can be divided into 6 steps, which
are scientific diagnosis, brand new medicine, immune block, immune tolerance,
immune protection, and immune clearance.
