Adult Chronic Kidney Failure Treatment

For the treatment of Chronic Kidney Failure (CKF): just like Acute Kidney Failure, the underlying disease needs to be treated. Hypertensive patients need to take their medications and diabetic patients need to control their blood sugars. Fortunately, kidneys have a large reserve of function. Even patients who have lost up to 80 percent of their kidney function do not need therapy since the small fraction of their kidneys that work is sufficient to clear the body of waste. 

When kidney function falls to below 10 percent of normal, conservative management is usually no longer adequate to control the symptoms of kidney failure. Dialysis is urgently needed when the patient has uncontrolled symptoms (e.g., nausea and anorexia), high blood potassium resistant to medical treatment, pericarditis (inflammation of the coverings of the heart) and nerve damage.
