Can Someone Who Is Doing Peritoneal Dialysis Keep A Pet
Can someone who is doing peritoneal dialysis keep a pet? This may be a problem that many patients on peritoneal dialysis are facing with.
Peritoneal dialysis is an effective way to prolong patient’s lifetime, and it is very beneficial to patient. For example, comparing with hematodialysis, it is very convenient, because it can be done at home, and can take little influence to patient’s life. Besides, it will not cause disequilibrium syndrome, which will cause many suffering experiences to patient.
But peritoneal dialysis also has its shortage, and the most severe shortage of peritoneal dialysis is patient is very likely to be infected. Once patient is infected, that may cause patient to have peritonitis, which is very dangerous. Peritonitis can lead to large protein loss, and it can also lead to peritoneal adhesion, which can cause peritoneal dialysis to lose efficacy, and peritonitis may also cause death. Thereby, patient should pay attention to prevent infection in his life.
On the other hand, if patient want to keep a pet, it may be a good idea for patient to keep good emotion, but it may not be a good idea, because pet always takes a lot of bacteria, and for patient who have peritoneal dialysis at home, it is very dangerous.
But for patient who wants to keep a pet, he may think he can chose not to take peritoneal dialysis at home, but always accept peritoneal dialysis in hospital. As we know, the bacteria in pet is always a dangerous source for peritoneal dialysis patient, and patient will always take dialysis tubing in his body, so that is always dangerous for patient.
Thereby, it is better for patient to choose not to keep a pet at home. While if you still have any problem in dealing with your condition, you can email us and tell us your need, and we will give you reply in time.
