Renal failure is to choose dialysis or kidney transplantation

Dialysis is through the filter to selectively exclude certain substances in the blood. In other words, by artificial means the toxic waste, water and salt accumulation in the body in patients with renal failure drain, so that the physical condition of the patient's recovery or reach a healthy state. There are two currently used forms of dialysis: hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Hemodialysis using a special machine to replace kidney function. Peritoneal dialysis the peritoneum of the human body acts as a filter and remove toxins. Either dialysis modality, can only temporarily exercise the functions of the kidneys, the body of toxins excreted temporarily saved the lives of patients. Not have a fundamental role for the treatment of impaired kidney repair, we can not effectively block the process of renal fibrosis. Final condition will worsen, but a matter of time. So dialysis is a "means" temporarily "relieve patient suffering.
Kidney transplant is surgery, organ donor kidney transplantation to the process of receiving a transplant patient's body. The possible sources of the kidney: family, spouse, close friend or brain death and during his lifetime to sign an agreement to donate organs. Of course, the best match of the kidney is usually from the transplant recipient brothers and sisters, because their genes with the most likely. Kidney transplantation is the treatment of kidney failure, the best way, because the kidney transplanted into the patient's body is almost completely replaced by
Kidney function and renal failure and allow patients to resume a normal life, get rid of the pain of life by dialysis. Unfortunately, not every renal failure patients have the opportunity to receive a kidney transplant. Because it is difficult to find a suitable replacement kidney.
Kidney transplantation is the best treatment for the treatment of end-stage uremia, compared with hemodialysis, it has the following advantages:
A, serum creatinine recovery or near normal levels, which significantly improved a range of symptoms in chronic uremia, nausea, itching, pericarditis;
Second, to avoid loss of nutrients caused by hemodialysis; and correct anemia, improve sexual function, making the patient physically be restored;
Restoration of social activities and work, increased movement and travel, and improve quality of life;
Fourth, from the overall macro perspective, can be reduced in patients with medical spending, greatly prolong life.
