Patient's question:
What are the treatment methods for acute kidney injury? My grandfather's recent test report indicated acute kidney injury, so I wanted to ask you, what are the treatment methods for this disease?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of acute renal insufficiency should target the underlying cause. When treating acute renal insufficiency, it is important to actively control infection, completely remove the primary focus, treat the primary disease, and re-establish electrolyte balance. It is also necessary to promptly identify the type of kidney disease and adopt a clear treatment plan. Acute renal insufficiency has the best prognosis with acute glomerulonephritis, with younger age groups having poorer prognoses. School-aged children have the worst prognosis with rapidly progressive nephritis. Currently, with the improvement of dialysis therapy, the mortality rate of this disease has gradually decreased.
