Terminales Nierenversagen: Ab wann wird es kritisch? | Health Celerates

Our kidneys are vital organs that filter the blood and protect the body from toxins. When chronic kidney disease progresses to the point where the kidneys lose their function, it is referred to as "end-stage renal failure." This condition can be life-threatening and often requires life-sustaining treatments such as regular dialysis or, in the best case, a kidney transplant. End-stage renal failure occurs when the filtering capacity of the two kidneys is less than 15% of that of healthy kidneys. Dialysis, also known as renal replacement therapy, is used when chronic kidney disease reaches the end stage and the kidneys fail. Dialysis is often referred to as "blood purification." There are two types: hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Dr. Amir S. Naderi, a specialist in internal medicine and nephrology, explains how these two types differ and what the risk factors for kidney failure are in this video. While a kidney transplant, which enables a near-normal life, is the preferred treatment option for many patients, the waiting time for a donation is often six to eight years. Living organ donation can significantly shorten this wait time. ❗️Ultimately, the decision for or against a treatment option always depends on individual factors and requires careful consultation with a physician.
