How long a patient with uremic heart failure lives varies from person to person. For example, if the heart failure is severe enough to reach NYHA class IV, and the patient experiences tightness in the chest and shortness of breath when he or she moves, he or she may have a shorter time to live, and may die within a year, or even within a few months. If the heart failure is mild and the patient is able to tolerate normal activities, the patient with uremic heart failure may survive for a longer period of time. In addition, uremic heart failure how long to live, and the patient is actually what causes heart failure is also related, such as uremic patients themselves have a cardiac base disease, such as severe cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease, or the heart itself is relatively poor in the basic function of the patient, may be relatively short survival time. If the cause of heart failure is due to uremia, resulting in sodium retention, after dialysis to enhance ultrafiltration, the patient’s edema subsides, the cardiac load is reduced, the heart failure can be significantly corrected, such patients with heart failure may survive for a longer period of time.
