Note that 2 bad habits accelerate the progression of kidney disease to uremia, and doing 4 points can help you stay away from it
If chronic kidney disease is not effectively treated, it can progress to the stage of uremia, and at this time, only kidney transplantation or hemodialysis can be used to maintain life. There are two vices in patients with kidney disease that will speed up the development of uremia, it is better to quit as soon as possible.
Which two bad habits will speed up the progression of kidney disease to uremia?
- Unauthorized withdrawal or reduction of the drug
Nephropathy has a long treatment cycle and many symptoms, so long-term medication, such as anti-inflammatory analgesics, hormonal drugs, and immunosuppressants, is required to maintain stable proteinuria. For patients receiving hormone therapy, the proteinuria is stable and the protein quantification is less than 1 gram. If there is no obvious recurrence symptoms, the drug can be gradually stopped, but the drug should not be stopped suddenly, so as to avoid the recurrence of the disease. At the same time, use antihypertensive drugs, Chinese herbal medicines or anti-inflammatory drugs in strict accordance with the doctor's instructions.
- Never pay attention to review
Patients with renal disease need to regularly check proteinuria, serum creatinine, uric acid and hemoglobin, and photostatin C, as well as electrolyte glomerular filtration rate and memory creatinine clearance rate. Microalbuminuria and proteinuria can indicate renal filtration function; uric acid and creatinine can indicate renal detoxification capacity; glomerular filtration rate can represent overall renal function. Therefore, only regular review can understand the renal function. However, some patients have never paid attention to the index examination, and as a result, they have not seized the golden period of treatment, thus developing into uremia.
How to maintain stable renal function in patients with renal disease?
- Monitor blood pressure frequently
Most patients with renal disease are accompanied by hypertension, so sartans or prilins are prescribed antihypertensive drugs, which can not only lower blood pressure, but also delay the deterioration of renal function. However, people who already have renal insufficiency need to be changed to calcium antagonists and diuretics. During the treatment period, renal function and blood pressure should be monitored, and the dosage should be adjusted according to the test results.
- Stable electrolyte
After renal function is damaged, electrolyte disturbances will occur, thereby increasing the difficulty of treatment. Therefore, patients with renal disease should regularly monitor serum potassium, serum phosphorus and serum calcium to maintain them within the normal range.
- Improve immunity
If you want to stabilize kidney disease, you need active anti-inflammatory treatment. If the immune inflammation in the kidney is too active, it can accelerate the degree of renal damage, so active anti-inflammatory treatment is required. Usually need to pay attention to personal hygiene, adjust the diet, participate in more physical exercise to enhance physical fitness, and actively prevent infection.
- Adjust the diet structure
Patients with kidney disease should follow a low-fat, low-salt, low-phosphorus and low-potassium diet, reasonably supplement high-quality protein and vitamins, refuse to eat high-fat and high-calorie foods, and avoid smoking and drinking.
Kind tips
Do not abuse drugs. Many drugs in life will have toxic effects on the kidneys, such as antibiotics and anti-inflammatory analgesics, drugs containing mercury and potassium, as well as Tripterygium wilfordii and Aristolochia. Patients with kidney disease have weak resistance and are susceptible to infection. Therefore, preventive measures should be taken. During the epidemic period, they should not go to public places, and pay attention to the cleaning of the mouth, skin and perineum. Reasonable arrangements for work and rest, to avoid physical overwork. In winter, it is necessary to increase or decrease clothes according to weather changes, wear a mask when going out, and avoid going to places with dense population and poor ventilation to avoid cross-infection. Avoid high-salt diets, consuming too much salt can cause water and sodium retention, increase blood volume, increase renal pressure and blood pressure, and then make the condition worse. In addition, it is necessary to face the disease correctly, not to give up on oneself and be pessimistic and disappointed, and constantly self-regulate to keep the spirit in a stable state, so as to stabilize the disease.
