How to Prolong Dialysis's Life Span without Kidney Transplant

Dialysis is an important renal replacement therapy that can help prolong the life expectancy for end stage kidney disease patients. Dialysis functions as an artificial kidney to replace some of the failed kidney’s functions to filter excessive accumulation of water, electrolytes and metabolic wastes and toxins from the blood so as to help purify the blood, eliminate risk factors that can threaten the patient’s life, improve the patient’s life quality and life expectancy.

However we know that dialysis is just a passive treatment that that have to be taken for several times each week. Since dialysis can not help improve kidney functions, illness conditions will continue to become worse though the decline rate of kidney functions is much slowed, metabolic wastes and toxins will be produced at a relatively constant rate, therefore patients have to rely on dialysis.

Dialysis can not cure kidney disease and long term dialysis can cause a series of side effects and complications. For many dialysis patients, kidney transplant seems to be last hope to help them get rid of dialysis and regain kidney functions. However not every patient has the chance to do kidney transplant due to the extreme scarcity of kidney donor and the huge cost of the surgery. Therefore many dialysis patients want to know is there any alternative treatment that can help prolong dialysis life span without kidney transplant.

The answer is yes. With better understanding of kidney disease and development in medical sciences and technologies, more and more hope are brought to kidney disease patients. Nowadays, dialysis and kidney transplant are not the only treatment choices for ESKD patients. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy and immunotherapy can help repair damaged renal tissues, promote the regeneration of new renal functioning cells and tissues so as to help recover renal structure and rebuild renal functions. What is more important, immune disorders and other imbalances in the patient’s internal environment can be rectified so that patients can achieve significant improvements of their illness conditions from the very root.

When renal damages are repaired and when renal functions are improved, kidney transplant will not be the last choice and patient’s life span can be greatly enhanced.
