The life expectancy of advanced uremia cannot be generalized; it may be prolonged if timely renal replacement therapy is taken; it may be shortened if treatment is not timely.
Uremia is the ultimate outcome of the continued progression of various renal diseases, which requires timely renal replacement therapy, specifically including hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplantation. For those who are to be treated with hemodialysis, vascular access should be established in advance. In patients with uremia, those who are treated aggressively with renal replacement therapy may live longer and have a significantly higher survival rate.
On the contrary, those with untimely treatment of uremia, water, acid-base balance and electrolyte disorders, edema, and heart failure are obvious, life expectancy may be greatly shortened.
Uremia patients should go to the hospital in a timely manner, under the guidance of a professional physician to avoid delays.
