How many years can uremia patients live with dialysis? Effective methods are the key

Uremia is a malignant cancer that poses a huge threat to the patient's life. The most common treatment for uremia is dialysis. As for how many years a patient with uremia can survive with dialysis, it depends on the specific treatment method and the patient's daily attention.

1. How many years can a patient with uremia live on dialysis?

In the treatment of uremia, dialysis is not a treatment method, but an "artificial kidney" that removes toxins from the body through dialysis, relieves the patient's condition, and quickly reduces creatinine and other values, thereby alleviating the patient's pain. Although dialysis can relieve the patient's physical symptoms, it is only a temporary solution and does not address the root cause. Dialysis can also cause many complications.

2. What should patients with uremia pay attention to?

The first thing to do is to be careful not to catch a cold, because patients with uremia are relatively weak and afraid of cold, so they are very likely to catch a cold, and a cold will cause a rapid increase in muscle and liver. If you cannot participate in physical labor, you must get enough rest and maintain a good attitude. A bad mood and getting angry will often aggravate the condition. Since toxins in the body cannot be discharged normally, uremia patients lose their acid and alkalinity balance. The main symptom is itching of the skin all over the body. At this time, be sure not to scratch it with your hands, as scratching will cause skin ulcers. You should often wipe it with warm water. Patients with frequent vomiting and diarrhea should pay attention to water and electrolyte imbalance and notify their doctor promptly if relevant symptoms occur. People whose breath smells like ammonia are prone to stomatitis and should strengthen oral care. It is best for the patient to have 2-3 bowel movements a day.
