Uremic psychosis (UP) is a serious mental disorder that can occur in people with progressive kidney failure. UP develops as a result of a disturbance in the metabolism of metabolites and electrolytes in the body, caused by the inability of the kidneys to effectively filter the blood.
Symptoms of PM can range from mild to severe and include delusions, hallucinations, confusion, aggressive behavior and seizures. In addition, symptoms such as headache, nausea, vomiting, swelling and changes in blood composition may occur.
Uremic psychosis is an extremely dangerous condition that requires urgent medical attention. If not treated promptly, UP can lead to serious complications, including coma and death.
Treatment of UP includes correction of metabolic and electrolyte imbalances, as well as the use of psychotropic medications to reduce psychiatric symptoms. In some cases, hemodialysis or kidney transplantation may be necessary.
In conclusion, uremic psychosis is a serious condition that can occur in people with kidney failure. In this regard, it is important to promptly seek medical help and follow the recommendations of doctors to prevent the development of this condition.
