At the beginning of the New Year, the country should have been celebrating together, but there was a hiccup that sprinkled a layer of mist on the sky of the New Year, and a war without smoke and mirrors arrived quietly. Countless doctors, nurses, police officers, and civil servants sacrificed themselves to fight against the epidemic, and they fought hard against the epidemic. In this battle, there is another category of “backwalkers” that we are not too concerned about, but their spirit is also worth learning from, and they need to be taken care of by our heart, and they are uremic patients who go to the hospital 2-3 times a week to receive long-term hemodialysis treatment regardless of wind and rain or sunny days. They are the uremic patients who have to go to the hospital for long-term hemodialysis treatment 2-3 times a week no matter rain or shine. After the battle against the “new coronavirus pneumonia” epidemic, in order to reduce the risk of cross-infection, traffic control and restrictions on the movement of people were adopted everywhere, and people consciously stayed at home and avoided traveling. But uremic patients have to take the risk and do a group of alternative “retrograde walkers”. Because they need to go to the hospital regularly for hemodialysis treatment to extend their lives, otherwise they are prone to acute left heart failure, hyperkalemia, metabolic acidosis and other serious life-threatening emergencies. How should we uremic patients cope with the special period? 1. Pay high attention to the prevention and control of this epidemic, cooperate with the government and relevant departments of the hospital, actively participate and protect ourselves; 2. Avoid going to crowded places as much as possible, minimize taking public transportation, do not visit friends and relatives, wear qualified masks correctly when going out and visiting the hospital, monitor body temperature every day, and contact the doctor in charge if there is any abnormality; 3. Be sure to go to the hospital regularly and on time Receive regular hemodialysis treatment, irregular hemodialysis treatment is prone to acute complications such as hyperkalemia, acute heart failure, arrhythmia, metabolic acidosis, uremic encephalopathy, gastrointestinal bleeding, etc., which can be life-threatening in serious cases; 4. During the special period, strictly control the type of diet, control the water, eat less fruits or drinks at home, and if there is any change in the condition, go to the hospital at the first time with good protection 5. For individual patients with transportation difficulties, it is recommended that they be treated nearby and choose the nearest hospital for dialysis treatment. If there is indeed a complicated condition that must be seen at a large hospital, try to make an appointment to contact in advance.
