Hemodialysis

Dialysis patient.. stop worrying and start life

 1. Dialysis is not the end of life, but rather the beginning of a new life, which may be more difficult, but it will also be wiser, more adaptable, simplifying life and being closer to God, and it may be an easy path to heaven.

 2. Dialysis does not mean death. There are many people who live on dialysis machines for more than 20 years if they maintain their health and follow the doctor’s instructions.

 3. The AVF is your window to life, keep it well (the arm with the AVF, do not sleep on it, do not wear tight clothes, do not carry heavy objects, inform your doctor immediately if there is swelling, redness, or pus in the venous junction)

 2 Low blood pressure is dangerous for the venous connection, which can lead to the formation of clots and damage to the venous connection

  High blood pressure leads to heart failure and cerebral hemorrhage

 You must monitor the pressure daily and adjust the pressure with your doctor

 3. Severe anemia is very dangerous to the lives of dialysis patients. The hemoglobin level must be monitored every month, so that the hemoglobin is from 10 to 12, and hemoglobin is more than 12, which can cause a clot in the venous connection.

 5. The dry weight of the dialysis patient is very important, and it is the weight at which the patient’s pressure is controlled and there is no excess water in the body, meaning there is no swelling in the feet and no fluid in the lungs by means of normal x-rays

 6. Excess water in the dialysis patient’s body leads to lung congestion, diarrhoea, shortness of breath with enlargement and heart failure.

 7. The lack of water in dialysis patients as a result of excessive withdrawal of the dialysis machine leads to hypotension, muscle tension, dizziness and regurgitation. The solution is to reach dry weight.

 7. The biggest crime committed by many doctors (mostly outside the specialty of kidneys) is giving 1 alpha and calcium supplements to kidney patients without knowing the percentage of calcium, phosphorous, and PTH.

 Because not all of my kidney patients need 1 alpha and calcium

 And if you give a mistake, it will destroy the patient's bones and turn them into biscuits to the extent that the patient, if he coughs, may break the bones.

 Compulsory for all dialysis patients to do calcium, phosphorous and PTH tests every 3 months
