There is no such thing as whether dialysis for the elderly is good or not, the key to whether dialysis for the elderly is good or not is whether it is suitable or not. If the complications are heavy and the patient can tolerate dialysis with good results, then the benefits of dialysis outweigh the disadvantages, and dialysis is good at this time, and if they cannot tolerate it, then dialysis is not good. Generally age is not a key factor in measuring whether to undergo dialysis treatment or not, some patients are older but can tolerate dialysis and can get better quality of life and longer life through dialysis, such patients are recommended to undergo dialysis treatment. Elderly patients on dialysis can choose either peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis depending on their specific situation. Elderly patients who want or need dialysis are recommended to go to regular hospitals, consult professional doctors, complete relevant examinations under the guidance of doctors, and follow the doctor’s instructions.
