Replacement of Renal Function by Dialysis
  • 515 Accesses

Abstract

Some of the important questions for nephrologists providing maintenance hemodialysis (MH) or peritoneal dialysis (PD) to patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) who are also infected with various viral agents include:

  1. a)

    What is the preferential mode of renal replacement therapy for ESRD patients, if the long-term prognosis is determined by the nature and severity of viral infection?

  2. b)

    What are the different therapeutic strategies to treat these infected patients, such as the deployment of antiviral drugs, immunomodulators, and others, and their adverse effects in patients with compromised renal function?

  3. c)

    What are the combined effects of superimposition of immunosuppression on chronic uremia, maintenance dialysis, renal transplantation, and immunosuppressive therapy, on the natural history of viral disease, especially in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which preferentially affects the T cell system?
