Complications of chronic nephritis

summary

My sister is chronic nephritis, nearly a year, since the disease has been in active treatment, but the effect is not very good, still taking medicine, from the life of the diet is also careful conditioning, let me introduce the complications of chronic nephritis.

Complications of chronic nephritis

First of all, infection is the most common complication of chronic nephritis: long-term proteinuria leads to a large number of protein loss, malnutrition, immune dysfunction, easily complicated with various infections. Such as respiratory tract infection, urinary tract infection and skin infection, infection as a malignant stimulus, often induce acute exacerbation of chronic nephritis, make the disease progressive. Although there are many kinds of antibiotics to choose from, if the treatment is not timely or thorough, infection is still the main cause of acute attack of chronic nephritis, which should be paid great attention to. 　　　　　

Second, renal anemia: renal parenchyma damage occurs in the late stage of chronic nephritis, which can be complicated with a variety of abnormalities in the blood system, such as anemia, platelet dysfunction, lymphocyte dysfunction and coagulation dysfunction. Anemia is the most common complication. Chronic pyelonephritis: the clinical manifestation of chronic pyelonephritis may be similar to that of chronic nephritis, but detailed inquiries about the history of urinary tract infection (especially women), more white blood cells in urine, white blood cell tube type, positive urine bacterial culture, intravenous pyelography and radionuclide renogram examination have different degrees of renal damage, which are conducive to the diagnosis of chronic pyelonephritis.

Third, hypertension: chronic glomerulonephritis renal insufficiency stage, often serious cardiovascular complications, such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, cardiomyopathy, pericarditis and renal insufficiency, the main reason is chronic glomerulonephritis renal insufficiency stage (CRF) itself development process caused by metabolic abnormalities. According to statistics, the incidence rate of hypertension is 70% to 80%. Patients requiring renal replacement therapy almost have hypertension. Among them, 3/4 patients can control hypertension with low salt diet and dialysis. Besides, 1/4 patients use dialysis to remove excess sodium and water, and their blood pressure increases.

matters needing attention

Reasonable diet, patients with glomerulonephritis can not strictly control the protein intake, and can not overemphasize the high protein diet, protein can be used appropriately, the daily intake of adults is about 60 grams, and mainly high biological protein, such as eggs, lean meat, fresh milk. Avoid: spicy, fried, aquatic products, (shrimp, crab) pepper, garlic, green onion, coriander, dog meat, horse meat, donkey meat. To low salt diet, light and rich in vitamin food, all kinds of patients can add a small amount of condiments, such as a small amount of sesame oil, MSG, etc.
