  • Title: [Prevention and treatment of uremic autonomic neuropathy].
    Author: Rozentryt P, Stryjewski D, Zembala M.
    Journal: Postepy Hig Med Dosw; 1995; 49(6):767-82. PubMed ID: 8700810.
    Abstract:
    The autonomic impairment, which is the frequent complication of end-stage renal failure, may eventually trigger numerous crippling consequences. It is doubtful if standard dialysis techniques may effectively treat once developed autonomic lesions. Renal transplantation seems to be much more efficient. The article points out the discrepancies in symptoms attributable to autonomic impairment and results of autonomic testing, discusses also differences between somatic and autonomic nervous system involvement in uremic patients. The one of the most important part of the article describes the practical approach to the patient with severely symptomatic uremic autonomic neuropathy. Finally the authors articulate their proposals for further research on uremic autonomic neuropathy.
