Edema Inspection

Edema caused by different reasons according to laboratory tests carried out are not the same need. Common clinical edema often due to some important system caused by disease or organ, so in addition to edema, general laboratory examination, also need to be checked for their primary disease, to determine prognosis and estimation edema edema. For patients with generalized edema should generally be considered for the following laboratory tests.

1. Measurement of two plasma protein albumin

Such as plasma protein is less than 55 g / l or albumin less than 23 g / l, expressed plasma colloid osmotic pressure. Which is particularly important to reduce albumin. Plasma protein and albumin reduce common in cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome and malnutrition.

2. urinalysis and renal function tests

There are systemic whether there is protein, red blood cells and casts, etc. should be checked within edema urine. If no proteinuria and edema probably not caused by heart or kidney disease. Patients with heart failure often have mild or moderate proteinuria, and persistent severe proteinuria characterized by nephrotic syndrome. Persistent proteinuria, red blood cells and casts in urine increased significantly associated with renal dysfunction often prompted edema kidney disease; although patients with heart failure may also have the above performance, but changing urinalysis and renal function in degree lighter than normal. And edema of renal function tests, often used a peptide known as phenol methyl phenol red test, urine concentration and dilution test, urea clarification tests aimed at measuring renal excretory function.

3. Determination of red blood cell count and hemoglobin content

Such as red blood cell count and hemoglobin content was significantly reduced edema should consider this possibility and anemia.

The daily intake and excretion of water and sodium computing
Calculate the daily water and sodium intake and excretion were measured in plasma sodium content when necessary, help to understand the body of water and salt retention situation.

Prevention of Edema

1. Avoid long standing sedentary, at home or office, every once in a while to get up to move around.

2. Before falling asleep, the foot can raise more than the height of the heart.

3. Avoid food flavors. Salt is not only edible salt or eat salty things, in fact, refers to all the sauces, pickled or drink high amounts of sodium. Should eat more fruits and vegetables (rich in potassium), because sodium and water retention in the body insulin will, and potassium in the body is discharging water.

4. Do not overwork the law of life.

5. regular exercise, diligence as foot muscle pump campaigns to prevent and eliminate leg swelling.

6. Do not wear tight clothing degree, especially in the hips and thighs will be very tight jeans, corset, waist, etc. can cause abdominal pressure increases clothing.

7. wear elastic stockings.

8. Avoid wearing high heels.

Proteinuria Classification

Kidney disease such as proteinuria lives belong among relatively common type of the disease, but also affect the health of patients with kidney to a patient brought ordinary people can not imagine the pain, so we hope for patients with this disease can actively correct treatment, then to We need to think properly treat the type of disease suffering from symptomatic treatment.

1. Functional proteinuria

Mild proteinuria is a benign, after removal of the reason may soon disappear, 24h urinary protein generally not more than 0.5g, which produces the mechanism is unclear, it may be affected by external factors cause kidney renal vascular spasm, congestion, kidney a small increase in glomerular filtration rate, seen in strenuous exercise, long march, high temperature environment. Fever, cold environment, nervousness, congestive heart failure.

2. pathological urinary protein

It is the most common and significant proteinuria seen in primary or secondary kidney disease, generally more protein in urine, urine sediment in clinical manifestations of red blood cells, white blood cells, camp type, edema, hypertension and so on.

3. orthostatic urinary protein

It features the appearance of proteinuria and body position, long-term standing, walking, etc. lordosis. Orthostatic proteinuria is due to renal vein distortion or compression of the left renal vein lordosis of the spine, causing temporary circulatory disorders caused by supine 1h urine protein disappear or decrease. When suspected orthostatic proteinuria, were measured in the morning before getting up, significant differences in the urine protein may occur after getting up. Lordosis caused by, ask the patient standing against the wall for 10 min observation, if the urine protein appears to confirm the diagnosis. Diagnose orthostatic proteinuria should be careful, take time followed generally observed more than five years, the disease did not change, continued normal renal function, for diagnosis. Once the presence of persistent proteinuria, when the function damage, should be promptly corrected diagnosis and timely treatment measures.

Proteinuria such diseases, we must not blindly treatment, must be based on the type of interest contained in the symptomatic treatment of patients willing to find some relief for each proteinuria disease disease, reducing kidney disease to patients bring harm.

Diseases easily confused with proteinuria

1. edema with proteinuria

Swollen with severe proteinuria mostly nephrogenic edema. Except with mild proteinuria seen in nephrogenic edema can also be seen cardiogenic edema. Pregnancy edema, proteinuria and edema more common in gestosis.

2. pregnancy proteinuria

In general, the normal protein in the urine rarely, no more than 7 ~ 10mg / 24h, with ordinary urinalysis undetectable. In fetal urine, when urine protein content increased, ordinary urinalysis can be measured, said fetal proteinuria. If the urine protein ≥3.5g / 24h, then known as proteinuria.

3. hematuria with proteinuria

Renal means from the glomerular hematuria, clinical manifestations of isolated hematuria, or hematuria with proteinuria. If the treatment is not complete, recurrent or loss of government mistreatment, illness can not be effectively controlled, resulting in uremia.

4.The low molecular weight proteinuria

Low molecular weight proteinuria is due to renal tubular damage, the warp back to normal glomerular filtration of protein malabsorption due.

Tips, these symptoms are common in the above, we must pay attention to changes, a lot of patients edema and, therefore, we should pay attention to their diet, avoid fatigue, and that patients should healthy life, do not stay up all night to maintain good mentality choose the right treatment, so as to ease their pain.

Why Iga Nephropathy Permanently

Iga nephropathy is a very insidious onset primary glomerulonephritis. Persistent clinical situation in many patients. iga nephropathy permanently and improper treatment and prevention measures in place related to these two factors, iga nephropathy patients need self-examination, attention.

Improper treatment

Iga nephropathy treatment is no cure, patients need to be made based on an effective treatment plan. Many of iga nephropathy patients, there is no formal system of treatment, and some patients even use of nephrotoxic drugs, everyone knows, this is not conducive to treatment, but were largely increased illness, and ultimately paid for, It does not cure the disease.

Key iga nephropathy treatment is to repair damaged kidney cells, which requires a process, some patients with IgA nephropathy free withdrawal, this situation is a cause of recurrent iga nephropathy. Many people on kidney disease awareness is not enough, that the period of treatment, there is no obvious symptoms of neglect treatment or simply no longer on treatment, thinking himself cured of kidney disease. Continue to relapse after treatment, so to and fro treatment, and ultimately lead to a deterioration of the disease.

Preventive measures in place

Infection, excessive fatigue, poor diet and so may lead to iga nephropathy relapse, so the course of treatment, patients should raise awareness. Some iga nephropathy patients can not always follow the doctor prescribed diet, eating too much sodium and potassium diet, adding to the burden on the kidneys and the heart. The doctor must pay attention to the views of everyday life to make reasonable arrangements.


These are the introduction of a nephrologist, iga nephropathy must be early detection and early treatment. If you have any questions you want advice, you can contact us by email: chinakidneyhospital@gmail.com or Tel: +8613633219293.

What Are the Causes Iga Nephropathy

As we all know, iga nephropathy is a common multiple of kidney disease, for which people are emotionally harm. But when it comes to the causes iga nephropathy, a lot of people do not know the course. Next, the details for you.

First, the urinary system disorder

Disorders such as urinary excretion, so that the urine in the body for a long time gathered easily produce toxins damage the kidneys, cause various kidney diseases, including IGA nephropathy.

Second, other inflammatory nephritis

Inflammation can cause the body's immune system disorder, so that a large number of immune complexes accumulate in the kidneys, increasing the burden on the kidneys, over time, it will develop into IGA nephropathy. Therefore, patients with nephritis, we must pay attention, if symptoms persist, and there are various obvious discomfort of performance, we must go to the hospital as soon as possible.

Third, congenital renal tubular dysfunction

IGA nephropathy is the most typical causes of atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple myeloma, gout, if not treated in time it might lead to IGA nephropathy.
Fourth, upper respiratory tract infection

Kidney experts, minor illnesses can cause serious illness died. Some people did not take the usual flu seriously, not even treat it as a disease to treat, I think about to boil over. However, I do not know, a cold can cause IGA nephropathy, cold winter etiology IGA nephropathy is the most common.


These are the introduction of a nephrologist, iga nephropathy must be early detection and early treatment. If you have any questions you want advice, you can contact us by email: chinakidneyhospital@gmail.com or Tel: +8613633219293.

How Can I Prevent Chronic Kidney Decline

Prevention of chronic kidney decline, kidney health care for our health is quite focused, due to chronic renal decline of kidney damage is quite large, and when the kidneys hurt, it will affect other organs of the body, and then threaten to the safety of patients, so do chronic renal recession is quite focused on preventive work. So how can we prevent chronic kidney recession? Here rehabilitation network by the kidney doctor as we explain in detail.

1, reasonable low-protein diet plan, low phosphorus and low-fat diet, chronic kidney disease renal protection effect, has been proven in laboratory and clinical. Current stressed that in order to prevent the generation of chronic renal failure, blood creatinine when in 159.1 micromoles / liter, it should limit the amount of protein to obtain.

2, active treatment of the primary disease on a variety of acute and chronic glomerulonephritis, lupus nephritis, nephritis, kidney disease, or perhaps involving the active treatment, away from the generation of chronic renal failure.

3, the application, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, not only able to control systemic blood pressure is high, and to correct the glomerular perfusion, high filtration state of renal decline has produced results. Clinical usually relatively more than the drugs captopril, Lotensin and Lee clonidine and the like.

4, away from or eliminate certain dangerous reason, the application of drugs toxic to the kidneys, severe infection, dehydration, urinary tract blockage (such as stones, benign prostatic hyperplasia), trauma and other reasons, often can aggravate existing kidney disease, worsening renal function promote kidney dysfunction produce. In fact, frequent, high-quality follow-up, variable small or remote causes of these hazards, or exhibits early and corrected.


These are associated with chronic renal decline explain prevention for patients with chronic kidney decline, the seize the time to go to regular hospital treatment is quite necessary. If you have any questions, you can contact us by email: chinakidneyhospital@gmail.com.

Polycystic Kidney Disease Is a Result Of how the Kidneys

And the change in people's diet structure, accelerate the pace of life continues to progress and the livelihood of the burden, the probability of people suffering from polycystic kidneys in a year long high, but not much because the disease symptoms in the early stages, which resulted in many patients with polycystic kidney disease is not fully known method, the final delay treatment, resulting in increased physical condition, then what is polycystic kidneys? How does it cause it?

Kidney polycystic kidney disease is a common hereditary kidney disease, polycystic kidneys if the main reason for genetic reasons, the sub-infantile and adult, which is rare infantile, adult polycystic kidney disease is an autosomal kidneys dominantly inherited polycystic kidney disease is more common, the incidence rate of about 1/1250, 10% stage renal disease. Polycystic kidney cysts patient's age and the growth a little growth, such as the concept of not immediately checked, kidney cyst continues to grow, it will squeeze four weeks renal unit will cause its damage, started renal fibrosis process, early performance of urine tests showed: protein and blood cells; if no process of renal fibrosis have been effectively curbed, it will show serum creatinine (CRE) tall, eventually grew into stage renal dysfunction.

The reason causing polycystic kidneys in addition to genetic causes, there are many acquired some other reasons, such as toxins stimulus, all kinds of infections, toxic effect on the human body can cause various types of cells organ damage, not only to intimidate Enron human life, but also cause mutations in human genes, cell mutations, these are probably induced polycystic kidneys exhibited; infections can also cause the body to produce abnormal condition inside, thereby causing cysts gene produces beneficial changes in the body generating situation, prompting internal causes cysts activity strengthened, eventually resulting in the generation of polycystic kidneys.

Why the Creatinine Keeps a High Level and No decrease

For the kidney disease patients, urine protein is the ‘daily meal’ and the creatinine is the ‘big meal’ for them, because the a higher creatinine means the kidney failure.

So what the patients should do when their creatinine begins to increase? Dialysis? But the side effects of dialysis is so terrible, besides, when the creatinine is below 500umol/L, the doctor will not suggest the dialysis.
So they can only take some medicines, uremic clearance, Oxyamyli Aldehydum Tectum, ketosteril, Shen Shuaining(Chinese name) and so on.
However, after they take these medicines, the creatinine has no decrease, even has a increase, why?

Why the creatinine has a increase even after the medicines intake?

Generally, we said the increased creatinine, which means the serum creatinine. So what is the reason of the increasing serum creatinine?
Creatinine is the metabolite of muscle, so no matter you eat meat or take exercise, which will cause creatinine. In the normal body condition, these creatinine will run into the kidney along with the blood and get a filtration by the kidney, finally come out along with the urine.

Why the creatinine keeps a high level?

We all know that the creatinine exists in the blood, so as long as we remove the creatinine out from the blood then everything will be ok, right? So dialysis becomes the common choice for most of the kidney disease patients.
However, there is one problem: if the kidney function does not get a recovery, will the creatinine be able to decrease?

Is it useful to take medicines?

Many patients ask me that, I have taken so many medicines, such as Oxyamyli Aldehydum Tectum, Medicinal Charcoal Tablets, ketosteril, Shen Shuaining(Chinese name) and so on, to decrease the creatinine, but why there is no decrease of creatinine?

Because these medicines have no effect of repairing the kidney function.

Such as, Uremic Clearance Granule, which has a slow effect on decreasing blood pressure and dilating blood vessel and it can only have a short period of improvement on the symptoms of nausea, malaise. Besides, the uremic clearance granule has a slow effect on improving plasma ALB, postponing the progress of glomerular sclerosis. That is to say, the effect of uremic clearance granule for kidney disease is ‘cure the symptoms, not cure the kidney disease ’, so these medicines will not have good effect on the kidney disease.

What Are The Clinical Manifestations of Chronic Renal Failure Is

"Renal failure" is renal failure. Renal excretion of the body's vital organs, with excretion of metabolites, drugs, toxins and detoxification products, and regulate body water, electrolytes, acid-base balance function. In addition, the kidneys also secrete erythropoietin and other important hormones, in order to regulate the body's physiological functions. So is a multi-organ kidneys, in maintaining the stability of the human body environment plays an important role. When the various causes severe renal impairment, the human body environment are disturbed, and its main metabolites accumulate in the body, water, electrolyte and acid-base balance disorders, accompanied by a qualitative change in the amount of urine and urine and kidney endocrine dysfunction caused by a series of pathophysiological changes. Chronic renal failure (CRF), commonly known as uremia, end-stage renal disease status of all, excessive accumulation of toxins in the body and moisture eventually proves fatal.

Chronic renal failure development process many factors can aggravate kidney failure process, these factors through proper and timely treatment, it can be corrected, so that a corresponding improvement in renal function, we will call these factors reversible factors.


CRF in the early, most patients are asymptomatic, abnormal blood chemistry is not obvious, but the performance of hypertension, proteinuria and serum uric acid levels increased slightly. Such as chronic renal failure continues to progress, it can cause pathological changes in various systems, including: water, electrolyte imbalance, metabolic acidosis; cardiovascular system changes; changes in the blood system; neuromuscular system changes; changes in the digestive system; respiratory system changes; renal osteodystrophy; metabolic disorders; immune dysfunction; endocrine disorders; infections; excess or lack of trace elements; itchy skin.

What Will Affect The Prognosis Of Chronic Renal Failure

"Renal failure" is renal failure. Renal excretion of the body's vital organs, with excretion of metabolites, drugs, toxins and detoxification products, and regulate body water, electrolytes, acid-base balance function. In addition, the kidneys also secrete erythropoietin and other important hormones, in order to regulate the body's physiological functions. So is a multi-organ kidneys, in maintaining the stability of the human body environment plays an important role.

Factors affecting the prognosis of chronic renal failure, the following situations are common:

(1) primary renal disease itself closely associated with chronic renal failure prognosis.

(2) a variety of infection is the most common chronic renal failure prognostic factors, including respiratory and urinary tract infection is most common.

(3) the impact of urinary tract obstruction is common prognostic factors, and urinary tract infections and often coexist.

(4) use of nephrotoxic drugs.

(5) all causes of renal hypoperfusion, such as severe vomiting, diarrhea caused by shock, low blood pressure, long-term excessive use of diuretics and so on.

(6) various causes of heart failure.

(7) renal hypertension renal damage have a direct effect.


(8) water and electrolyte disorders.

Chronic Kidney Disease Early Prevention Method

Reducing salt intake, diet should be light

A balanced diet. People eat a lot of plant and animal proteins, the final metabolite - uric acid and urea nitrogen and so the burden should be excluded by the kidneys, so binge drinking, overeating will increase the burden on the kidneys;

Adequate water, do not hold back. The urine in the bladder too long is very easy to breed bacteria, bacterial infection is likely through ureters to the kidneys, drink plenty of water every day full at any time urination, kidney stones would not be easy;

Planned physical activity every day and exercise, weight control, prevent colds
When the throat, tonsils and other inflammation requires immediate antibiotic treatment under the guidance of a doctor complete, easy to induce streptococcal infection or kidney disease;

Quit smoking; drinking in moderation, avoid excessive drinking

Avoid drug abuse, the use of drugs, chemical toxins can lead to kidney damage. As large doses of painkillers, improper use of aminoglycoside antibiotics, long-term, excessive use of herbs containing aristolochic acid, can slowly cause renal damage;

Pregnant women is best to check before kidney disease and renal function situation, if there is a considerable degree of kidney disease and kidney specialist to discuss the possibility of pregnancy, or blind pregnancy, kidney disease may soon deteriorate cause renal dysfunction;

Regular annual routine examination of urine and kidney function, can also be done while kidney B ultrasound, to understand a family history of the disease.

Experts point out that high-risk groups, namely diabetes, hypertension and other disorders may cause kidney damage people, in addition to the above measures, but also pay attention to:

Should actively control the risk factors of hypertension, diabetes, high uric acid, obesity, high cholesterol, etc., adhere to drug therapy under the guidance of specialist physicians;

Proper diet, adhere to the corresponding salt, low sugar, low purine, low-fat diet and so on;

Close observation of their blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, uric acid and other indicators, strictly controlled within the normal range;


At least once every six months to monitor urine, urinary albumin and renal function in order to detect early kidney damage.

The Stages of Polycystic Kidney Disease

PKD is a common genetic kidney problem with numerous cysts in kidney. In cases of PKD, kidney cysts enlarge over time and this may cause damages on surrounding kidney structure and thus affect kidney from functioning properly.

1. Emergence period

PKD is a kind of genetic disease. Before 20 years old it`s difficult to find because the cysts are small.

2. Growth period

During 30-40 years old, cysts will grow quickly so patients should ovserve regularly. They should take positive treatment to restrain the growth of cysts.

3. Swelling period

When patients are over 40 years old, cysts will grow further. Once over 4cm, it belongs to swelling period. Lots of symptoms will appear with the growth of cysts like back pain, proteinuria, blood urine, hypertention and so on. Now it is the most important period to take comprehensive treatment. It will help to promote blood circulation to remove blood stasis and detox.

4. Ulceration period

If cysts are growing all the time, it will fracture under some external reason. Once it fractures, patients should go to hospital immediately.

5. Uremia period


To treat uremia, they should take hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
