Dialysis, popularly known as artificial kidney, is one kind of blood
purification
technology. The operating principle of dialysis is semi-permeable
membrane. It can help discharge the toxins, metabolic wastes and excessive
electrolyte out of the body through diffusion so as to purify the blood and
balance the water, electrolyte and acid-base balance. Generally dialysis can be
divided into blood dialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
What Happens If A Patient Misses His Dialysis
Nowadays more and more kidney patients come to know about dialysis and they
usually regard dialysis the only way to maintain their life especially in the
end-stage of the disease. However such kind of understanding is far from
comprehensive.
Can Kidney Function Come Back If Start Dialysis
When the creatinine level is high, it is necessary for the patients to have
dialysis to help discharge the too much toxins out of the body because the
accumulation of creatinine and other metabolic wastes will in turn cause damages
to the kidneys and other organs. Dialysis does have its own advantages. It can
clear away the toxins quickly and timely and plays an important role in
protecting the patients’ life. Some patients may have the misunderstanding that
once they start dialysis, they can’t get rid of dialysis any more. In some
cases, some patients can’t get rid of dialysis in the end after they have years
of dialysis. This is because they are too dependent on dialysis and don’t seek
any other treatment except the dialysis. As we all know that dialysis is just a
machine that replaces the kidney’s functions. It can not repair the damaged
kidney, so patients have to do dialysis after a period of time.Is It Possible to Reduce Frequent Dialysis In China
What’s worse, dialysis can only help discharge the small molecular toxins
like creatinine, uric acid and urea nitrogen. Other middle-sized and
macromolecular toxins like retinol-binding protein, homocysteine can’t be clear
away through the dialysis. As a kidney specialized kidney disease hospital,
Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital has introduced a lot of advanced blood
purification equipment and instruments. In addition to dialysis, there are also
blood filtration, blood perfusion, immune adsorption which can help discharch
the middle-sized and macromolecular toxins as well as the immune complexes so as
to provide a favorable internal environment for the Micro-Chinese Medicine
