When Is the Best Time to Start Dialysis

Dialysis is one choice for people with renal failure to live longer that can remove the toxins and excessive fluid out of the blood to maintain the life.
When to start dialysis depends on the individual healthy condition. The best time for people to star dialysis can rely on the kidney function, clinical symptoms and nutritional condition. Meanwhile the age, medical condition and primary disease are the considerable factors.
Experts in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital recommend you start dialysis when your kidney function drops to 15% or less — or if you have severe symptoms caused by your kidney disease, such as: shortness of breath, fatigue, muscle cramps, nausea or vomiting. Your doctor will help you decide when to start dialysis, based on results of lab tests that measure how much kidney function you have left and on your symptoms.
If you are not having symptoms, you may be able to wait a bit longer before you begin dialysis. Since chronic kidney failure often happens slowly, sometimes people do not even know how bad they feel, until they start dialysis and begin to feel much better.
It is important to start getting ready for dialysis or a transplant well in advance. Learning about the types of dialysis and transplant options will help you make a choice that is best for you. Symptoms of Uremia like nausea, vomiting etc occur and the treatment does not work the dialysis should be adopted. When acute heart failure, severe hyperkalemia and acidosis occur and medication does not work, urgent dialysis should be adopted. For people with under nutrition, they should take dialysis into consider after the treatment can not improve the condition.
People should start dialysis timely to keep the condition stable. During dialysis they can find alternative therapy to treat kidney disease like Immunotherapy or kidney transplant.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital can help patients avoid dialysis. Hope your more inquiries.
