What is the life expectancy of people with stage 3 Kidney Failure? This
article is going to response to this frequently asked question.
In fact, the life expectancy of people with stage 3 Kidney Failure varies
from case to case, mainly depending on the following factors:
1. Management of the associated diseases
As kidney function declines, a lot of waste products can build up in the
blood causing a series of symptoms including high blood pressure, anemia, sleep
problems, itching, muscle cramp etc.
If the patients with stage 3 Kidney Failure can control their glucose level
under control and maintaining a healthy blood pressure, it can help them
preserve their kidney function. They should choose the medications which do not
have adverse effects on kidneys such as ACE, ARBs etc under their doctors’
guidance. Proper management of the associated diseases can slow down the
progression of Kidney Failure thus extending life expectancy of people with
stage 3 Kidney Failure.
2. Healthy daily habits
People in stage 3 Kidney Failure should exercise regularly and not smoke or
drink. They should be referred to a dietitian to make a meal plan individualized
for their needs. Eating a proper diet can help preserve kidney function and
overall health.
3. Proper treatment
At present, there is no cure for Kidney Failure. However, a proper treatment
can inhibit the progression of the disease and guarantee people with stage 3
Kidney Failure to live as long as the normal.
After many years’ researches, an effective therapy is introduced into the
treatment of Kidney Failure. It is immunotherapy. It plays the following roles
in treating Kidney Failure.
* Immunotherapy can eliminate the associated symptoms like high creatinine
level, anemia, high blood pressure etc by restoring the impaired kidneys.
* Immunotherapy can rebuild the autoimmune process so as to prevent relapse
of the disease.
* Immunotherapy can clear up the pathological substances which can impair
kidneys. Therefore, it can stop further damage to kidneys.
If the patients with stage 3 Kidney Failure can receive the above systemic
treatment along with healthy habits and controlling the complications, they will
be able have a normal life expectancy as everyone else.
