Patient Nguyen Van Thanh (name changed, 65 years old, Ho Chi Minh City) came for a periodic check-up at Thong Nhat Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City. The patient said that he had felt tired for about a week and had to go for a check-up.
Through medical history, the patient had a history of high blood pressure for 10 years, type 2 diabetes for 8 years and dyslipidemia for 10 years. During the disease, the patient took medicine unevenly, the most recent follow-up was 3 months ago; every month, he only took an old prescription without a follow-up check-up because he was away from home. The patient was less physically active and prioritized sweets in his diet. Regarding living habits, the patient did not smoke, occasionally drinking alcohol to a very low level since being diagnosed with the disease.
Faced with the above condition, doctors ordered the patient to perform a series of tests. The results showed that the patient had 0.4g of duodenal dysentery, which means a high risk of progressing to chronic kidney disease. The patient is also at high risk of tieu thu. Mr. Thanh is currently being controlled by a doctor and treated to improve his urinary tract condition.
According to Dr. Nguyen Van Be Hai - Head of the Department of Cardiology, Thong Nhat Hospital, controlling high blood pressure and detecting complications early plays a very important role in providing timely and comprehensive treatment solutions.
In particular, in patients with many underlying diseases, high blood pressure is considered a "silent killer" because it can cause many complications, including kidney complications. If detected and treated early, it will help limit kidney complications in the later stages. Notably, when the patient has chronic kidney failure in stage 3 or 4, they are classified as high or very high risk.
In addition to high blood pressure causing complications for the kidneys, diabetes is also a high risk factor for kidney damage. If the patient has both high blood pressure and diabetes, controlling blood pressure, blood sugar and duodenum will determine the prevention of kidney failure as well as prolonging the treatment time.
Dr. Nguyen Thi Mai Huong - Department of Cardiology, Thong Nhat Hospital - emphasized: Patients at high risk or have been diagnosed with the disease need to adjust their lifestyle and maintain regular physical activity. At the same time, they must strictly follow the treatment regimen and take medication prescribed by the doctor, especially in cardiovascular diseases and high blood pressure.
The risk of Niederly plateau increases proportionally to blood pressure levels and glycemic index. This risk increases rapidly when blood pressure exceeds 160 mmHg or fasting blood sugar exceeds 10 mmol/L. When tricuspid subary stasis appears, the renalfiltration attack complex will be activated, increasing the risk of progressing to a real tricuspid and leading to end-stage renal disease.
