Can
kidney failure be cured after dialysis? Dialysis is
the most commonly used medical method for kidney failure, so many people have
the doubt that if kidney failure will be cured after dialysis.
What is dialysis?
For
kidney failure patients, dialysis is used as an artificial replacement of
kidney function. While people doing dialysis, their blood will be induced into
dialysis machine in which blood and harmful substances can be separated. After
that, purified blood will be returned back to patients’ body.
How does dialysis help kidney failure patients?
Dialysis
is needed for kidney failure patients, as it can purify blood. For patients
with failed kidney, their kidneys can not work as well as before. Under such a
condition, toxins stay in blood. They may reach any part of patients’ body and
cause damages on different organs. This is the reason why kidney failure
patients need to do dialysis.
With
dialysis, harmful substances in blood can be removed successfully, which can
help to protect other internal organs from being damaged. Cardiovascular
disease is the leading cause of death among kidney failure patients. With
dialysis, patients’ risk for this kind of illness can be lowered effectively.
Besides, due to high levels of toxins in blood, kidney failure patients always
experience a series of discomforts like nausea, vomiting and itchy skin. After
dialysis, these discomforts can be alleviated successfully.
Can kidney failure be cured after dialysis?
Dialysis
can not cure kidney failure, as it only helps to clear toxins away from blood.
Kidney is responsible for discharging toxins and purifying blood. When kidneys
tissues are injured and fail to function properly, toxins will build up in the
blood. Dialysis replaces damaged kidneys to remove toxins out of the blood, but
it can not repair injured kidney intrinsic cells and restore kidney function.
Therefore, kidney failure can not be cured with dialysis. Also, this explains
why kidney failure patients need to do dialysis repeatedly.
