What do you need to be aware of?

Routine screening is an important means of monitoring and managing kidney health. In order to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of inspection results, the following are some of the matters that require attention before and after inspection:Preparation for inspection1. Dietary control- Avoiding high-protein diets: Ingestion of excessive proteins should be avoided within 24 hours of the examination, so as not to affect the results of urine protein tests.- Limitation of salt intake: high salt diets may affect the results of blood pressure and kidney function tests, and therefore salt intake should be restricted.- Empty abdominal requirements: certain examinations, such as acetic anhydride, blood sugar, etc., may require an empty abdominal consumption, which is usually required for 8-12 hours before the examination.2. Avoiding violent movement- Within 48 hours of the examination, it should be avoided, as it may affect the level of indicators such as acetic anhydride.3. Stopping specific drugs- Certain drugs may affect the results of renal function tests, such as non-paralytic anti-inflammation drugs, some antibiotics, etc. The doctor should be consulted on the need to suspend the drugs before the examination.4. Full rest- Ensure adequate sleep and avoid overwork, as fatigue may affect the results of inspections.5. Carrying relevant information- Carrying previous medical records and examination reports for comparative analysis by doctors.Attention during inspection1. Timely arrival- Arrival at the hospital on time, as scheduled, so as not to affect the examination process.2. Informing doctors honestly- To inform the doctor of his or her state of health, of the medications being taken and of the history of allergies.3. Compliance with medical advice- Conduct all examinations in strict accordance with the doctor ‘ s instructions and do not alter the examination items or processes.4. Stay relaxed- In conducting inspections, try to remain as relaxed as possible and to avoid tension affecting the results.Attention after inspection1. Observation of physical reactions- Following the examination, care is taken to see if there is any discomfort in the body, such as bleeding through puncture, swelling, etc., and, if necessary, timely medical treatment.2. Restoration of normal diet- Upon completion of the examination, a normal diet can be restored, but healthy eating habits should be maintained.3. Timely drug use- If certain drugs have been suspended as a result of the examination, they should be reinstated on medical advice.4. Access to inspection results- To obtain the results of the examination within a specified time frame and to communicate with the doctor in a timely manner on the significance of the results and on follow-up advice.Special cases1. Women during pregnancy- Women during pregnancy should be particularly careful in their kidney examinations to avoid the use of radioactive substances or drugs that may be harmful to the foetus.2. Older persons- In carrying out inspections, older persons should be aware of the problems of mobility or hearing impairment, which require the presence of family members or medical personnel.Child patients- The child may need special accommodation and care during the examination to ensure that the examination is carried out.Through the above-mentioned attention, regular check-ups for kidney patients can be smoother and more accurate and help doctors to develop or adjust treatment programmes to better manage kidney health.
