How do nephrotic patients control water intake?
The amount of water must be controlled well, because improper water intake can cause kidney patients appearing edema and other symptoms.
Before limiting the water intake, We should first make clear the visible dehydration, insensible dehydration and endogenous water.
Visible dehydration refers to the loss of water in the urine, waste in the gastrointestinal tract, and so on.
Insensible dehydration is the loss of moisture through skin, respiratory tract etc.
Endogenous water refers to the release of water through food oxidation, cell metabolism.
Moreover, water intake should include 350 ml of endogenous water generated daily. Many people with CKD have impaired their ability to retain salt and water at the end of the disease when oliguria or oliguria occurs. Then limiting the intake of water will lead to further deterioration of the already impaired kidneys, which should supplement the loss immediately.
