The prognosis of chronic nephritis is slow progression, may eventually progress to chronic renal failure, the rate of progression of the lesion individual varies greatly. If patients are treated in a standardized manner, some of them can delay the progression of renal function for life without renal replacement therapy. Some patients with severe disease, without timely treatment may rapidly progress to uremia.
Chronic nephritis is generally referred to as chronic glomerulonephritis, which originates in the glomerulus and manifests itself as proteinuria, hematuria, hypertension and edema. The prognosis of chronic nephritis is slow progression to chronic renal failure, but the rate of progression varies greatly, mainly depending on the type and severity of renal pathology, whether effective measures are taken to slow the progression, whether the treatment is appropriate and whether risk factors are avoided.
If some patients are treated in a standardized manner, normal or stable renal function is maintained for a long time and the progression of renal function is delayed. By controlling proteinuria, hypertension and other symptoms within the standard, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications and renal failure may not occur.
Some patients with severe disease, not timely treatment, delayed and slow progress of the disease, may eventually develop to end-stage renal failure.
It is recommended that patients with chronic nephritis go to regular hospitals in time and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment.
