How long pasent can survive if both of his kidney is workibg only 10%?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
10% kidney function: At 10% of kidney function, people start either hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. If patients at that level of kidney function do not start dialysis, they will die of renal failure. The time to death is variable and is usually before two months. If you know this person have her see a nephrologist to see if rrp is appropriate for her. Good luck.
