Explanation:
What treatments are available for kidney failure?
Three major types of treatment are available for patients with kidney failure. They are hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplantation.
Hemodialysis may be done at a dialysis center or at home, and treatments usually take place three times a week.
Peritoneal Dialysis may be done at home, at work, at school or wherever a clean, private space is available for bag exchanges. The two types of peritoneal dialysis are automated peritoneal dialysis (APD), which requires the use of a machine, and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), which is machine-free.
Kidney Transplants can come from living donors, who are usually family members, spouses or friends of the patient. Transplants can also come from people who died recently (non-living donors).
You also have the right to choose not to start treatment if you feel the burdens of dialysis would outweigh the benefits for you.
It is important to remember that treatment does not cure kidney failure and that each type of treatment has its pros and cons. You and your family should explore each choice carefully with your doctor, transplant surgeon and other health care team members.
Taking a look at your lifestyle can help you decide which treatment is best for you. A treatment choice is not always final. For example, a patient who has decided that hemodialysis is the best choice may, at a later time, still consider peritoneal dialysis or a kidney transplant after talking to the doctor and other members of the health care team.
If you decide - with the help of your family and doctors - that a transplant is the best choice for you, you should be aware that a period of waiting will be necessary if the kidney is to come from a non-living donor. (See below*)
Occasionally, some patients choose to stop treatments once they have begun them. Patients who choose to stop dialysis do so knowing that without treatment, they will die.
Is it normal to have fears about beginning treatment?
Yes, almost all patients and their families have fears before starting treatment. Having concerns about how you will feel, whether the treatment will hurt, what the staff and other patients will think of you, and how long you can live with the disease is normal and expected.
The following steps can be helpful in dealing with these feelings:
Ask the doctor for a referral to the dialysis unit where treatment will take place. Visiting the facility before you begin treatment can help make the dialysis machine and the treatment less frightening.
If you are interested in a transplant, ask your doctor for a referral to a transplant center. Set up an appointment to visit with the staff.
