Why kidney failure patient want to stop dialysis?
Generally speaking, once stage 4 chronic kidney disease is reached, 90% of kidney function is gone and then surgery to form a fistula for dialysis would be the next step. Once stage 5 chronic kidney disease is reached, patients would begin dialysis three times per week, for 3-5 hours each session. As a matter of fact, dialysis makes the patients’ life quality poor. In nowadays, more and more dialysis patients aew wondering whether they can stop dialysis.
How long can kidney failure patients live if they stop dialysis?
As to the life expectancy for dialysis patients, it depends on their ages and other medical problems present, there has no an exact answer to the life expectancy for dialysis patients. In general, the older Kidney Failure patients are and the more healthy problems they have, the less time they have remaining. If dialysis patients are between 45-54 years, the average five year survival is 70%; if between 65-74 years, it is 30%, and fewer than 20 of 100 people over 75 years old will live five years.
We hope all the Kidney Failure patients could ignore these data about life expectancy for dialysis patients, it varies from different people. If Kidney Failure patients have not started dialysis, then we hope they could learn more about Chinese herbal medicine which has been used in China, it aims at repairing kidney damage and enhancing kidney function. If Kidney Failure patients have already been on dialysis for more than six months and they nearly have no urine, then kidney transplant may be the best choice. If dialysis patients still have some certain urine output, then we do think enhancing kidney function is the best way to avoid kidney transplant.
