Dialysis patient convulsing

Uremia is a kidney disease that is extremely harmful to the normal human body. Uremia will directly destroy the balance of human kidneys, so patients with uremia generally undergo dialysis treatment during the treatment process. Dialysis is a treatment method that is very physically demanding on patients, because in a sense, dialysis is a blood transfusion treatment for patients. But what happened when a patient developed convulsions during dialysis?

Why do dialysis patients convulse?

Convulsions after dialysis may be related to the drop in body temperature during the dialysis process, the loss of calcium during dialysis, or may be caused by hypoglycemia.

How to treat convulsions in dialysis patients

1. Oral administration of Chinese medicine: Uremia is the terminal stage of progression of different kidney diseases. The whole course of the disease is protracted and the pathology is complex. At different stages of uremia, Chinese medicine treatment should be carried out accordingly. Uremia patients need to be diagnosed and treated based on their specific condition.

Effect: It can strengthen the body's health, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, eliminate evil without hurting the body's health. It can significantly improve clinical symptoms, enhance the body's metabolism and immune function, accelerate the excretion of toxic substances, and prevent further damage to the glomeruli.

2. Chinese medicine enema: Enema is one of the common methods of treating uremia with Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine enema can remove nitrogen from the patient's body and is a supplement to oral medications, especially for patients who cannot take oral medications.

Effect: Promote the excretion of uremia toxins from the intestines, increase intestinal peristalsis, prevent intestinal toxin absorption, promote the excretion of toxic substances in the body, help reduce the load on healthy renal units, and thus control the increase of toxic substances such as blood creatinine and urea nitrogen.

3. Umbilical therapy: Chinese medicine umbilical application therapy is also a method of treating uremia with Chinese medicine without being absorbed through the digestive tract. Umbilical therapy is an external treatment method in which medicine is applied to the navel or umbilicus.

Effect: The drug enters the blood through the navel and exerts its effects, thus achieving the therapeutic effects of nourishing the spleen and kidneys, reducing turbidity and detoxifying, and reducing swelling and promoting diuresis.

4. Medicinal bath: Chinese medicinal bath can treat uremia by using the warm effect of medicinal bath water to directly apply the medicinal ingredients to the body surface. As the skin temperature rises, the skin capillaries expand, promoting the circulation of blood and lymph, and increasing the excretion of toxins with sweat, it can give the damaged kidneys a chance to recover on their own, increase urine volume, reduce edema, and improve the body's immune ability.

In fact, there are many reasons why dialysis patients may have convulsions. On the one hand, it may be related to hypoglycemia, or low temperature may also cause convulsions. However, calcium loss during dialysis is also an important cause of convulsions. Therefore, when doing dialysis, it is better to have two more people accompany you.
