How long can patients survive with 10% kidney function? Indeed, this is a common question that many Kidney Failure patients and their families care. How about the answer? Follow me and find out the more information.

Surely you should know a person with 10% kidney function means that the patient is suffering from renal failure. Compared to the normal renal function (90-125) , 10% renal function is so poor that patients suffer from numerous symptoms as well as complications like high blood pressure, swelling, proteinuria, blood in urine, itching, anemia, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, poor appetite, cardiovascular diseases, diarrhea, constipation and so on. In the condition, your doctor will suggest dialysis to you. It is reported that the average life span for dialysis patients is 4.25 years, only 23% of patients can live for 10 years, and dialysis patients can only live for six months if the GFR level has been less than 10 for one to two years. To be frank, it is so hard to give out the precise number for how long you can live. But it is no doubt that treatment plays an important part. Any questions, please do feel free to contact our Online Doctor directly or leave a message to renal-disease@hotmail.com

As the artificial kidney, dialysis indeed can help the damaged kidneys discharge extra wastes and toxins from the body, thus prolonging the patients’ life. However, you should know dialysis also can bring the new health problems which can affect the body health. Therefore, we do not suggest dialysis treatment if you have a certain urine output.

In Shijiazhuang Hetaiheng Hospital, we mainly make use of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to repair kidney damage and recover renal function. What’s more, on the basis of TCM, we also created more systemic and natural treatment which can help reduce frequency of dialysis or avoid dialysis. For example, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is your best choice. It focus on improving kidney function and repairing kidney damage through the certain functions like dilating blood vessels, anti-inflammation. Anti-coagulation, degrading extracellular matrix and supplying necessary nutrients.
