Anemia is a common complication of kidney failure. With the progression of kidney failure, anemia can worsen and worsen. Can blood transfusions help with kidney failure? Read on for more information.
What causes anemia in patients with kidney failure?
For kidney patients, your kidneys can not secrete enough erythropoietin to produce red blood cells. And the toxins in the body not only inhibit the production of red blood cells, but also damage the cytoplasm of red blood cells to accelerate their death. In addition, poor long-term appetite, diarrhea and so on can make your body lack iron, folic acid, protein and other nutrients, which can add insult to injury. As for this type of anemia, blood transfusion is not a permanent treatment. And if the blood you transfuse is not fresh, dead red blood cells can break into some nitrogen metabolites, which can put extra strain on the kidneys.
How to treat kidney anemia?
Although patients with renal failure have better not transfuse blood, it does not mean that they should not. When your hemoglobin level is greater than 6 g, no blood transfusion is needed. When it is less than 6g, all organs will be severely oxygen deficient. To transfuse some concentrated red blood cells or to do little but multiple transfusions of blood can improve ischemia and anoxia.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Blood Transfusion
Toxins-Removing Treatment is only temporary medical relief. After short-term, red blood cell levels will decline again. If you perform multiple blood transfusions, you can increase BUN and potassium in your blood to make your disease worse. And at the same time, it increases the chances of being infected by liver viruses.
However, if you need surgery due to a severe infection, acute massive hemorrhage or severe aluminum, blood transfusion is necessary. And you should transfuse fresh blood or some red blood cells.
