How to preserve the function of damaged kidneys?

Kidney, the organ is given to man in a pair, often, and rightly, called a window through which to see the whole heart and vascular system. Through it can detect many diseases in their early stages. But through the window of many people, even doctors do not look well, or do not watch the time.

Correct the anemia

Anemia is one of the first signs of disorder in the work burega. Today there are powerful drugs (erythropoietin) to curb anemia, kidney protect, at the same time keep the heart and entire vascular system

For, as many have learned that it was important to control blood pressure, sugar and fat in the blood, and no one mentions creatinine and albumin in the urine. Or, why anemia is so present, and even neglected. Devastating is the fact that many patients, even though they had obigrali various specialists, first of Nephrology learn that their kidneys are functioning poorly and that it is not from yesterday.

Has long been known that anemia is a regular companion of various diseases, and that anemia is one of the first signs of disturbance in kidney function. Today there are powerful drugs that curb anemia, and simultaneously protect the kidney and cardiovascular sistem.To, among other things, the reason why at the recent Congress neforloga our experts, along with many foreign experts paid special attention to contemporary trends in the treatment of anemia of renal origin.

Erythropoietin is normally produced in the kidney, but in patients with chronic renal failure is below the level necessary for normal maturation of red blood cells, resulting in anemia and anemia.

Treatment of anemia before dialysis is very important for improving skeletal muscle function, better utilization of oxygen in tissues, thereby improving blood flow and cerebral blood vessels of the heart.If you do not start treatment of anemia in the early stages of renal failure, the consequences are worse quality of life and increased risk of heart complications.

Erythropoietin poravlja blood count, keeps the heart and other organs. Correction of anemia this drug in the early stages of kidney disease slows their progress to dialysis, keeps blood vessels and the heart, decreases, and most exclude transfusions in these patients. In a large percentage decreases mortality and renal patients.

Intensive work of scholars thirty years ago managed to create a recombinant form of the hormone erythropoietin, the application of the Kidney patients achieved increasing the number of red blood cells, hemoglobin and other parameters, significantly improves the working capacity of patients, their appetite, lose the feeling of tiredness and lethargy, word, significantly improves the quality of life. In addition, prolonged use of erythropoietin and brings substantial benefits to the cardiovascular system.

Advances in treatment does not stop coming, and thanks to researchers even more powerful and better drugs. Until now, standard therapy included drug application (recormon) three, or two times a month intravenously or subcutaneously, but the latest studies showed that the drug when given in a cumulative dose is equally effective.

Latest eritropoetinski agent that is used for the treatment of renal anemia, the so-called receptor activator eritropoetinskih continuous action, or continuous activator sites that are associated with a drug to treat anemia (CERA), presented at the expert meeting Dimković Professor Nada, head of the Center for kidney disease KBC "Zemun". CERA has been most thoroughly investigated drug in this area. Experts from 29 countries worldwide are involved in clinical trials that confirmed its extraordinary efficacy in the treatment of anemia and the fact that this drug compared to the previous act more intensely and for longer. Correction of anemia can be achieved by the medicinal product is only once a month.

Tests

Tests to detect kidney disease are simple, accessible and convenient for the patient - an overview of the presence of urine protein or albumin and determination of creatinine in the blood, and through him learned and kidney function.

Causes

The main causes of renal anemia are shortened life of red blood cells (RBC) and disturbed the process of creating red blood cells in the bone marrow which is usually a consequence of the creation of erythropoietin, a hormone responsible for normal maturation of red blood cells. Professor Steve Plješa from KBC Zemun says that 10 percent of the world's population, or 600 million people have some degree of renal failure, the number of cases is increasing enormously. Neither the forecasts are not great in America is now a million people on dialysis in 2010. will be more than two million

30 times more often

Kidney disease is a "booster" of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

It is known that kidney patients dying 25 to 30 times more likely than men to suffer from heart and blood vessels. Therefore, they are advised to use drugs that reduce the secretion of protein in urine and that preserve kidney function. Then, a rigorous control of blood pressure, control diabetes, blood fat and anemia, otherwise common in kidney and heart disease. In addition, we should not forget quit smoking, increasing physical activity and weight control.
