This is
one of the most common questions as far as kidney transplant is
concerned. One of the most common reasons people go for a kidney
transplant is when they have a kidney failure. Read on to know more
about when a patient has to go for this transplant.
The kidney function
In
case you don't know, your kidneys are organs that look like beans.
These organs are found on both sides of your abdomen. They receive blood
flow from your blood vessels on a regular basis.
In your kidney,
there is a plethora of filters and they are called nephrons. Their
function is to filter harmful stuff and excess fluid. The rest of liquid
is passed out of your system through the urethra.
Kidney disease
If
you have a kidney disease, the nephrons suffer from severe damage. As a
result, your kidneys fail to filter well. Your body accumulates a lot
of harmful stuff with time. When you lose 90% of the kidney
functionality, you have the last stage of the kidney disease.
Causes of the kidney failure
Diabetes
High blood pressure
Artery blockage
Polycystic kidney disease
Immunity system disease
Treatment for the kidney disease
If
your kidneys have lost almost 90% of their functionality, we suggest
that you get proper treatment in order to prevent the life threatening
consequences. Usually, dialysis is a solution to this condition. This
procedure takes a lot of time and money.
A better solution is known as kidney transplant. Unlike dialysis, this procedure is more convenient.
The success rate
You
can get a kidney transplant done no matter how old you are. However,
your health should be good enough. This is to help you bear the major
operation. If you take the immunosuppressant medications post the
procedure, the chances of the success of the procedure will be high and
your body won't reject the new organ.
Patients who are not eligible for the procedure
Patients with last stage of cancer
Patients with AIDS
Patients with an active infection
Patients with a heart or liver disease
Waiting for the procedure
Unfortunately,
if you have been suffering from a kidney disease, we suggest that you
apply for a kidney transplant. But keep in mind that you have to wait
for your turn for the procedure. Typically, you may have to wait for up
to 2 years in the "queue". Apart from this, if you have a rare blood
group, you may have to wait a bit longer than other people.
If you
are on the waiting list, you should be ready to get ready for the
procedure at a short notice. When you are waiting, you are put on
dialysis on a regular basis. Moreover, you have to follow a healthy diet
plant.
Those on the list must be prepared for the operation at a
very short notice. While on the list the patient may be maintained on
dialysis and must attempt to remain as healthy as possible by adopting
healthy diet and exercise regimen.
So, if you want to get a kidney transplant, we suggest that you keep these tips in mind.
