How to treat pyelonephritis

summary

It is often said that nourishing diseases is like nourishing tigers. This sentence means that diseases should be treated as soon as possible. No matter what kind of diseases, if they are allowed to develop, they will cause certain harm to the human body. Next, let's take a look at how to treat pyelonephritis.

How to treat pyelonephritis

First: general treatment. It includes avoiding fatigue, removing infection and other incentives, avoiding contact with nephrotoxic drugs or poisons, adopting healthy lifestyle (such as smoking cessation, moderate exercise and emotional control) and reasonable diet. In the acute stage, patients should rest in bed and gradually increase the amount of activity after the improvement of clinical symptoms. Acute phase should be given a low salt diet (less than 3G per day). It is not necessary to limit the protein intake in patients with normal renal function, but it is necessary to limit the protein intake in patients with azotemia. Fluid intake should be limited in patients with oliguria.

Second, the treatment of etiology and pathogenesis. Glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants are often used in the treatment of immunopathogenesis. Blood purification therapy such as plasma exchange and immunoadsorption can effectively remove autoantibodies and antigen antibody complexes. The treatment of non immune pathogenesis includes hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, hyperuricemia, obesity, proteinuria and renal hypercoagulability, renin-angiotensin system activation, oxidative stress and so on. Renin angiotensin system blockers, such as ACEI / ARB, are one of the most important therapeutic measures to delay the progression of kidney disease.

Third: the treatment of complications. Patients with kidney disease often have a variety of complications, such as metabolic abnormalities, hypertension, coronary heart disease, heart failure and liver cirrhosis, which may aggravate the progress of kidney disease. The complications of kidney disease may involve various systems, such as infection, coagulation dysfunction, renal hypertension, renal anemia, renal bone disease, water, electrolyte and acid-base balance disorder, acute left heart failure, pulmonary edema and uremic encephalopathy, which should be actively treated.
