Also called End-stage renal disease (ESRD). Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top End-stage kidney disease occurs when the kidneys are no longer able to function at a level that is necessary for day to day life. It usually occurs as chronic renal failure progresses to the point where kidney function is less than 10% of baseline. At this point, the kidney function is so low that without dialysis or kidney transplantation, complications are multiple and severe, and death will occur from accumulation of fluids and waste products in the body.
In the United States, nearly 300,000 people are on long-term dialysis and more than 20,000 have a functioning transplanted kidney. The most common cause of ESRD in the US is

8. ESRD Treatment Choices
A discussion about hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplantation in the treatment of endstage renal disease.
http://cnpd.com/choices.htm
Today, there are new and better treatments for ESRD that replace the work of healthy kidneys. By learning about your treatment choices, you can work with your doctor to pick the one that's best for you and with the help of your health care team, family, and friends, you may be able to lead a full, active life. The following describes the choices for treatment: Dialysis
There are two forms of dialysis. They are Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis.
Hemodialysis is a procedure that cleans and filters your blood. It rids your body of harmful wastes and extra salt and fluids. It also controls blood pressure and helps your body keep the proper balance of chemicals such as p otassium, sodium, and chloride.
Hemodialysis Dialysis
Hemodialysis uses a dialyzer, or special filter, to clean your blood. The dialyzer connects to a machine. During treatment, your blood travels through tubes into the dialyzer. The dialyzer filters out wastes and extra fluids. Then the newly cleaned blood flows through another set of tubes and back into your body.
Before your first treatment, an access to your bloodstream must be made. The access provides a way for blood to be carried from your body to the dialysis machine and then back into your body. The access can be internal (inside the body usually under your skin) or external (outside the body).

    Definition
    End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is that stage of kidney impairment which is irreversible, cannot be controlled by conservative management alone, and requires dialysis or kidney transplantation to maintain life. Description
    There are two types of kidney failure: acute and chronic. Acute kidney failure is a temporary decline in kidney function that can most often be corrected. Chronic kidney failure, on the other hand, is a permanent condition, meaning that once it occurs, the kidneys cannot be made to function again. Chronic kidney failure may be the result of heredity, as with polycystic kidney disease, or may be caused by prolonged medical conditions, such as high blood pressure or diabetes. Persons with chronic renal failure are referred to as having end-stage renal disease. The term indicates that the patient must rely on some type of medical treatment to help replace the loss of kidney function. Treatment
    The treatment alternatives for ESRD include hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and kidney transplantation. These are all viable treatment alternatives.

    The incidence of terminal renal failure is rising at an alarming rate, in spite of impressive advances in the management of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Particularly distressing is the number of older patients who need renal replacement therapy. In fact, more than 50% of patients undergoing renal dialysis or transplantation for ESRD are age 65 or older. This symposium looks at several important aspects of ESRD. The morbidity and mortality associated with this problem are highlighted in the discussion on epidemiology, morbidity, and mortality of ESRD by Sanford T. Reikes, MD. For example, the extraordinary mortality among patients with underlying comorbid conditions, such as diabetes or atherosclerotic vascular disease, points to areas needing special attention. Some studies have shown that mortality rates for ESRD in these patients exceed those of advanced colon and breast cancer.

    • To learn how ESRD rates and causes differ among races, by sex, and by age-group
    • To understand the role of hypertension and diabetes in ESRD

This is the first of three articles on end-stage renal disease Preview : End-stage renal disease (ESRD), which is often related to diabetes or hypertension, is a serious medical and economic public health problem throughout the world. An understanding of the scope of this condition, as well as the trends in outcomes, is essential for optimizing treatment of ESRD and establishing meaningful strategies for prevention. In this article, Dr Reikes describes the epidemiology of ESRD and reviews the trends in morbidity and mortality for patients undergoing dialysis or renal transplantation.

    You are in: Procedures Kidney Transplant End-Stage Renal Disease End-stage renal disease is the name for kidney failure so advanced that it cannot be reversed ("renal" is another word for kidney). The name is appropriate: the kidneys in end-stage renal disease function so poorly that they can no longer keep you alive. End-stage renal disease cannot be treated with conventional medical treatments such as drugs. Only 2 treatments allow you to continue living when your kidneys stop functioning: dialysis and kidney transplantation.
    • Dialysis is the term for several different methods for artificially filtering the blood. People who require dialysis are kept alive but give up some degree of their freedom because of their dialysis schedule, fragile health, or both.

    Overview Symptoms Treatment Prevention Definition: A complete or near complete failure of the kidneys to function to excrete wastes, concentrate urine, and regulate electrolytes
    Alternative Names: Renal failure - end stage; Kidney failure - end stage; ESRD
    Causes, incidence, and risk factors: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) occurs when the kidneys are no longer able to function at a level that is necessary for day to day life. It usually occurs as chronic renal failure progresses to the point where kidney function is less than 10% of baseline. At this point, the kidney function is so low that without dialysis or kidney transplantation, complications are multiple and severe, and death will occur from accumulation of fluids and waste products in the body.
    In the United States, nearly 300,000 people are on chronic dialysis and more than 20,000 have a functioning transplanted kidney. The most common cause of ESRD in the US is diabetes mellitus . ESRD almost always follows chronic kidney failure , which may exist for 10 to 20 years or more before progression to ESRD.
