When it comes to the treatment of kidney failure, it all depends on the level of kidney damage and its nature—whether it is sudden or chronic. When kidneys are unable to properly clean out waste products and excess fluids from the bloodstream, there is a case of kidney failure. In the case of acute renal injury, it is necessary to treat the cause of kidney failure, which includes dehydration, infection, toxicity from medicines, urine obstruction, and significant blood loss. Sometimes the kidney can restore its normal functioning with the use of temporary dialysis. When it comes to advanced chronic kidney disease or kidney failure, it is possible to treat these conditions with: Dialysis: hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis can take some responsibility of the kidneys by cleaning waste and excess fluids. Transplantation of the kidney: a healthy kidney from living or deceased donors replaces the kidneys that stopped working. This method is regarded as one of the closest to the regular kidney functioning. But there should be life-long monitoring and taking certain medications. Conservative renal treatment: it might be applied to people who cannot undergo dialysis and transplantation and need to control their symptoms. Anyone experiencing a low volume of urine, serious breathlessness, confusion, chest pain, or increasing edema must urgently seek medical advice. The right treatment will be determined by the nephrologist, depending on the results of the blood test, amount of urine produced, symptoms, and causes.
