Is Renal Failure Serious or Not

Caused by various factors, Renal Failure refers to a serious damage to glomerulus, which induces a group of clinical symptoms, including both disorders in metabolism and in balance of water and electrolyte, as well as in acid-base balance. Besides, with serious prognosis, Renal Failure is one of the most dangerous diseases, threatening human life. So, is Renal Failure severe or not? In fact, in different stages, the severity of renal failure is changeable. The following is the phases of Renal Failure for your reference.
First Phase―Renal Insufficiency Compensatory Stage. Serum Creatinine Level: 133～177umol/L. Due to powerful compensatory ability, renal ability to excrete metabolin and balance water-electrolyte still can meet the normal need, although renal function has already slacked down slightly in clinic. In this stage, no clinic symptoms occur and even renal function test shows normal or a little high level.
Second Phase―Renal Insufficiency De-compensatory Stage (also known as Renal Insufficiency Azotemia Stage). Serum Creatinine Level: (Scr)177～443umol/L. The quantity of renal induration and fibrosis increases, and 60%-75% function is damaged. At same time, kidney has a certain obstruction in discharging metabolin and serum creatinine urea nitrogen is a little higher or over the normal range. Besides, Anemia, Infection, weight-lose, failing to concentration etc can be found in patients but all these symptoms are usually neglected. In addition, the disease will aggravate, if the following symptoms occur: Dehydration, Infection, Hemorrhage and so on.
Third Phase― Renal Failure Stage. Serum Creatinine Level (Scr) 443-707umol/L. In this stage, Glomerulus Induration, Tubular-interstitial Fibrosis and Renal Vessels lead to a serious damage in renal function, obvious Anemia, Nocturia, an elevated level of serum creatinine and blood urine nitrogen, followed by Acidosis. If the disease can’t be controlled by regular treatment, it may aggravate to End Stage Kidney Disease, improving treatment difficulty.
Fourth Phase― Uremia Stage or End Stage of Renal Insufficiency. Serum Creatinine Level (Scr):>707umoll/L. In this phase, the damage of glomerulus has already been up to 95%, which is followed by serious symptoms, such as severe Nausea, Vomiting, Oliguria, Dropsy, Malignant Hypertension, severe Anemia, Pruritus, urine smell in mouth and so on.
So, how to treat Renal Failure?
It can be seen that Renal Insufficiency Stage is a key transition phase. If it can’t be treated effectively, it easily aggravates to Renal Failure Stage, even Uremia Stage. Then, how to stop the aggravation of the disease? The answer is to treat from the root. According to the most advanced theory― Kidney Fibrosis Theory, Renal Insufficiency is caused by renal intrinsic cells, which fails to complete kidney function. Therefore, the treatment should focus on repairing kidney intrinsic cells, only in this way, Renal Failure can be removed from the root.
