The care of patients with kidney failure mainly involves dietary adjustments. It is recommended to follow a low-salt, low-fat, and low-protein diet in daily meals, control fluid intake, engage in appropriate exercise, and receive supportive companionship from family members. Treatment methods for kidney failure primarily depend on the specific symptoms and may include medication, hemodialysis, and kidney transplantation.
