What should we pay attention to after kidney transplantation?

summary

Some time ago, a friend had a kidney transplant because of renal failure. After the operation, she is now in the hospital for a period of time. When the Doctor confirms that she can be discharged safely, she will go home for recuperation. In that period of time, she was very attentive to her life and did what the doctor said every day. Now the new kidney in her body has adapted to her body. She is now the same as a normal person and has no other kidney problems. Now, I'd like to share with you some issues that should be paid attention to after kidney transplantation, especially the diet. I hope it's useful for you.

What should we pay attention to after kidney transplantation?

First, early after the operation, the patient is still in the hospital. At this time, the patient needs to absorb enough protein and heat to maintain positive nitrogen balance, promote wound healing, and reduce the risk of infection. After the recovery of intestinal peristalsis, the patient can take a liquid diet, such as rice soup, lotus root powder, egg soup, etc., but do not drink cow's milk too early to avoid causing abdominal distension. Then, the patient can change to a semi liquid diet, such as soup, noodles, egg soup, Black fish soup, and gradually transition to the general food.

Second: the usual diet should be moderate, quantitative, such as carbohydrates, including rice and pasta, daily intake of about 300 grams. And protein, weight 60 kg adults daily intake of 100 ~ 150 grams, mainly eat milk, eggs, lean meat, black fish, carp, crucian carp, etc. During the period can also eat calcium rich milk, ribs, etc., boil bone soup can be appropriate to add vinegar, which can increase the dissolution of calcium absorption.

Third: there should be a strict regulation on the diet after leaving hospital and returning home. The amount of drinking water should be more than 2000 ml per day. And low salt diet, generally 3-4 grams of salt per day, less than 6 grams per day after half a year.
