Treatments
Permacath Insertion
A Permacath is a long-term catheter inserted into a large vein, typically for dialysis in patients with kidney failure. It provides a temporary but reliable access point for blood exchange during dialysis sessions.
Renal Replacement Therapy
Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) includes dialysis and kidney transplantation, used to replace the function of failing kidneys. It is vital for patients with end-stage renal disease to sustain life and maintain body balance.
Dialysis
Dialysis is a medical procedure that removes waste, toxins, and excess fluids from the blood when the kidneys are unable to do so. It can be done through hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis based on the patient's condition.
Slowing of Kidney Disease by DIET
A kidney-friendly diet focuses on reducing sodium, potassium, and phosphorus intake while maintaining adequate protein levels. Proper dietary adjustments can slow kidney disease progression and manage symptoms effectively.
Kidney Failure Treatments
Treatment for kidney failure includes lifestyle changes, medication, dialysis, or kidney transplantation. The choice depends on the stage of kidney failure and the patient’s overall health.
Patient Education Diabetes
Education about diabetes management includes controlling blood sugar levels through diet, exercise, and medication. Effective diabetes management is crucial for preventing kidney damage and other complications.
