Nutritional & Nursing Aspects Of A Patient Experiencing Acute Renal Failure And Dialysis
[ send me this essay ]
9 pages in length. Dealing with patients who are terminally ill with renal failure and receiving hemodialysis treatments means it is important to remember that physical pain is not the only kind of suffering they endure. Sometimes the emotional devastation is more to bear than the physical side; without the mind remaining strong for the body, it is very difficult to effect positive change even with the best of medical technology. As well, because animal proteins are much more difficult to process than vegetable and grain protein, dialysis patients are often recommended to adopt a vegetarian diet. It is a known fact that the one aspect of diabetes – a primary cause of renal failure – that cannot be overlooked is the ability to eat small amounts several times a day. The writer discusses nutritional and nursing aspects of someone experiencing acute renal failure and dialysis. Bibliography lists 14 sources.
