There are website consultants: My mother is suffering from kidney disease, is now dialysis for a month, but his creatinine has been increasing. Her creatinine is 5.8, then 7.0, and now is 8.6, and I think creatinine levels should be lower after dialysis. Can you tell me why?
A: Dialysis is a commonly used treatment for patients with renal failure and can replace the work of the kidney, dialysis can excrete waste and toxins. Creatinine can also be removed from the bloodstream during this process. Therefore, in general, creatinine levels may decrease after dialysis. However, your mother's creatinine level increases after dialysis, and some factors may cause this.
- lack of dialysis
This may result in dialysis not helping to filter out toxins and excess fluid in the blood, so more and more creatinine will gradually accumulate in the blood, which leads to elevated creatinine levels.
- Dialysis failed
Although dialysis is suitable for most patients with renal failure, it does not work well for all patients with renal failure. If dialysis can not work for your mother, her creatinine level also increases. In this case, she needs other treatments for her illness.
Therefore, you should find the basic cause of elevated levels of your mother's creatinine and treat this condition effectively. Early effective treatment is good for your mother
