Kidney Dialysis Patient - How To Avoid Fluid Overload?
One of the main functions of the kidneys is to balance fluid in the body. If too much fluid builds up in your body, it can have harmful effects on your health, such as difficulty breathing and swelling.
How to avoid Fluid Overload?
1. Track your fluid. Some patients use a visual to help them see how much fluid they are taking in. Find a container that you can mark or keep a journal of every liquid you have on a daily basis.
2. Follow the fluid guidelines given to you by your healthcare team. Most dialysis patients need to limit their fluid intake to 32 ounces or 800 ml to 900 ml per day.
3. Manage Your Thirst. Your dietitian can help you find ways to manage your thirst such as sugar-free hard candies, ice chips, or frozen grapes. This will help you avoid drinking too much fluid between dialysis treatments.
4. Manage your sodium. Sodium, in the form of salt, causes your body to hold on to water. Too much salt in your diet will increase your chances of fluid overload and make it more difficult to remove fluid during dialysis.
5. Adjust your dialysis. If fluid overload becomes a concern or issue, talk with your healthcare team about adjusting your dialysis treatment. Often longer or more frequent dialysis treatments are recommended to help remove extra fluid.
Kindly consult your healthcare provider immediately if you experience fluid overload symptoms.
