Systemic lupus eryhematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease that can affect multiple body organs and systems. Kidneys are very likely to be affected.When kidney failure occurs,dialysis will be suggested.How to avoid dialysis for a person with kidney failure due to SLE?
How does SLE cause Kidney Failure?
Immune system is a powerful protective system in body.When outside harmful substances invade into body,immune system will be initiated to produce antibodies to defeat them.After the harmful substances are eliminated,immune system will cease working.
However, in SLE, the immune system fails to function normally. Excess antibodies are made by immune system activity.These antibodies can deposit in kidneys to trigger inflammation in kidneys.The inflammation may impair kidneys,resulting in progressive renal function decline. Eventually, Kidney Failure will result.
Avoid dialysis in kidney failure due to SLE
To avoid dialysis in kidney failure due to SLE,the patients should have treatments to control SLE and reverse kidney damage.The combined therapy of Blood Purification,immunotherapy,and Micro-Chinese Medicines Osmotherapy is the recommended treatment for the condition.These three treatments can function together to bring a good treatment outcome.
Blood Purification is not a specific treatment.Based on the waste products in bloodstream,different types of blood purification methods will prescribed.It can clear up the antibodies and other waste products from body completely.
Immunotherapy can correct the immune dysfunction and help the body recover normal immunity.No abnormal immune system activity occurs so no immune complexes will form in blood. If so, SLE will be controlled fundamentally.
Micro-Chinese Medicines Osmotherapy aims at reversing kidney damage and improving renal function in SLE induced kidney failure. It can activate the self-healing ability in body to repair the impaired kidney tissues and cells. When the kidney function is improved, dialysis will be avoided completely.
