Die Mitschrift des Interviews mit Prof. Dr. med. Jürgen Flöge zum Thema “Nierenversagen”

Ist Nierenversagen dasselbe wie Niereninsuffizienz?

Generally, yes. Kidney failure comes in two flavors: the most acute, usually in the context of some medical disaster, where my kidney function quickly goes from 100% to zero – the patient is in intensive care with blood poisoning, with some bleeding shock , Much more common is chronic renal failure, where, over many years, this is a common chronic kidney failure, which unfortunately is usually a one-way street. Once there is a scar in the kidney, I can not turn it back.

Wie wird ein Nierenversagen festgestellt?

Very few patients come to us because they have noticed something. Whether they are storing water or whether they are suddenly having high blood pressure. In the majority of cases, the determination of blood values ​​at the family doctor for health insurance, This is much more common and thus typical of kidney disease – usually you do not notice it.

Kann ich mein Risiko für ein Nierenversagen bestimmen lassen?

So there are already groups of people who are at a higher risk than, say, me. These are diabetics, these are people with a badly adjusted blood pressure, but when smoking is even worse, these are people where, for example, there are certain kidney diseases in the family and these are people, where you would say clearly, such people are regular to the doctor and must then measure the kidney values.

Welche Beschwerden weisen auf ein Nierenversagen hin?

At first no renal failure. Usually you do not realize that and usually you can easily lose 50% or more of kidney function without feeling anything. What may indicate a renal failure are water retention eg in the legs; but that can just as easily have a heart cause; that can just as varicose veins have as cause. What can point to it, if suddenly a hypertension occurs again or suddenly is worse adjustable. All the other symptoms that you know are actually in the terminal stages and are very nonspecific. Fatigue, weakness, fatigue, but we all know that there are about 150 reasons for fatigue and fatigue. I think everyone has it on Monday morning or after the hard weekend,

Wie kann es zu einem Nierenversagen kommen?

Much has to do with the circulation. The kidney is nothing but a giant sponge of blood. 20% of the blood that the heart pumps immediately go to the kidneys and the kidneys are natural for any kind of vascular damage very sensitive, whether by sugar, either by high pressure, whether by smoking, either by atherosclerosis, cholesterol and so on. I think that’s the most important thing in the population. Being overweight is also part of it and the kidneys are incredibly sensitive to high pressure. Kidney and hypertension is a vicious circle. The sick kidney drives up the blood pressure, the high blood pressure damages the diseased kidney and then you get into a spiral, which I often can only break through with great effort.

Was ist ein terminales Nierenversagen?

Terminal, as the name implies, is the end. That means either the 5% kidney function that you only have when the amount of urine does not decrease. We all produce about 150 liters of urine every day – urine urine – and our kidneys are so great they can make one and a half liter of urine, which then goes to the bathroom. That means one can excrete one and a half liters of water, but without toxins in it. This is very confusing at first glance. That would be the situation where I have to start blood-washing. The other terminal kidney failure is dramatically increased when urine output suddenly decreases.As soon as one excretes less than 500 ml a day, then that is no longer enough and then water accumulates in the body and then I also need some replacement of the kidney function.

Welche Laborwerte sind typisch für ein Nierenversagen?

There are many laboratory tests that change with kidney failure. Creatinine and creatinine is a muscle breakdown product. This build comes up and down, this creatinine comes to mind and has the charm that it is excreted almost exclusively through the kidneys. That is, the worse my kidney function, the higher my creatinine level. The creatinine value has a big problem. Ideally, kidney function goes down, creatine just increases. The reality looks like this: the function is getting worse, creatine value is minimal; The function is very bad and it goes up steeply, but then, so to speak.To compensate for this, a lab usually calculates or estimates kidney function on the basis of creatinine value, and it takes something that is called GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate). So our kidneys purify 100 ml of blood per minute completely from one substance, that is the glomerular filtration rate and it has the charm of being 100 ml per minute and thus it can be colloquially used as a percentage kidney function. That is, when they get a lab paper in their hands, they look at the creatinine value; is that high? But there is a lot more to look under, there is estimated GFR and you can evaluate that in percent kidney function.

Bei welchen Erkrankungen kann es zum Nierenversagen kommen?

There are a lot of diseases and it depends: Do I have a good or a chronic kidney failure? Some of the cases of acute kidney failure are: ICU, some medical catastrophe, severe blood poisoning, severe bleeding shock, and in rare cases somewhat harmless. We have hantaviruses in the room here every year, especially in Aachen, where we are seeing a lot of acute renal failure. Healthy people who suddenly come to us with kidney failure. The good news is that it always recovers. The other situation, of course, is chronic kidney disease, where something develops slowly, often over decades. Since about one quarter of those affected have a diabetes, usually the so-called childhood sugar,a quarter has high blood pressure as a cause, a quarter has immune diseases of the kidneys – at the forefront so-called Glomerulonephritiden. And a quarter has some mish-mash of malformations, genetic disease, stones that infect, so a hodgepodge.

Bei welchen Symptomen sollte der Notarzt gerufen werden?

Kidney failure does not cause symptoms for a long time and often unspecific symptoms in the end. Tiredness, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, where kidney failure can only be one of many causes. Who of us is not tired at some point. In 999 out of 1000 cases this is not kidney failure. The ambulance should be called when literally the water is up to the neck and I not only have thick legs, but develop air deficiency, with decreasing urine output. The emergency doctor should be called, if they know they are kidney disease and very severe kidney disease and suddenly arrhythmia occur or they start to vomit, then it can be the sign of incipient poisoning and then it is really the highest railway.

Kann man eine Nierenschädigung durch Röntgenkontrastmittel verhindern?

In principle, yes, but perhaps only for clarification, only X-ray contrast agents can cause kidney failure, not the contrast media, which I need, for example, for a magnetic field examination. With X-ray contrast agents, this can happen, and so does the X-ray detector. There is probably little cause for kidney failure as overdramatized as X-ray contrast media. The risk is there, but the risk is very low and what is it that I send you to the X-ray doctor because I want to do some important research and need some findings. The X-ray doctor has to explain that, in principle, a kidney failure can occur and then they panic and say:I do not want to end up on dialysis and in the context of this panic is completely lost, that I wanted to do this investigation for a reason. We are experiencing significant underdiagnosis for fear of X-ray contrast medium damage and are dramatically overestimated. The risk is very small, so the benefit I get from the exam is usually much higher than the risk of it happening. Especially if I take little contrast, if I’m not completely dry before, and if the investigation then takes place in good conditions, then the risk is very low. so that the benefit I derive from the investigation is usually much higher than the risk of it happening. Especially if I take little contrast, if I’m not completely dry before, and if the investigation then takes place in good conditions, then the risk is very low. so that the benefit I derive from the investigation is usually much higher than the risk of it happening. Especially if I take little contrast, if I’m not completely dry before, and if the investigation then takes place in good conditions, then the risk is very low.

Kann sich ein Nierenversagen von selbst zurückbilden?

Radio Yerevan. In principle, yes, but one can imagine that it will not last for years or decades. For example, the kidney is not a very good organ compared to the liver because it is usually a one-way street. What’s gone is gone. Quite sometimes, however, there is a lot of inflammation in the kidney. Renal Failure and Renal Failure. This is the very rare case and we are talking about it.

Ernährung und Bewegung bei Nierenversagen – worauf ist zu achten?

This of course depends on the stage of kidney failure. If I am not on the verge of dialysis, then the same applies as for me. I should not eat so much protein, so the thick 500g steak is completely useless. I always say to my patients, look into their mouths, then you know what nature wanted: eat. That’s what the WHO recommends, for example. I’m supposed to eat a semi-vegetarian diet and I’m supposed to eat meat, but in moderation, like two or three times a week. I should drink enough, but there is no point in drinking this insane amount of water,Especially if the legs are already so thick and already a lot of water in the body, then it may make even less sense to drink. Humans do not need more than one and a half to two liters. My daughters always go around with these big bottles, because it makes you more beautiful and has no wrinkles. All humbug, so one and a half to 2 liters, unless they have cystitis after the next, then it makes sense to drink more, or they have kidney stones, then it makes sense to drink more, otherwise not. Exercise, of course, but that’s exactly what applies to all of us. The WHO recommends us five times a week to do a minimum of half an hour of exercise in any way. The emphasis, especially in kidney diseases, is on endurance sports. Cycling, swimming, running, walking, Jogging, everything you do evenly. In contrast, weight training is a major catastrophe in kidney failure, because you have measured the blood pressure in professional weightlifters, for example. If they lift their 100kg, then they have 350 blood pressure. The kidneys also record that and the head, and of course that is bad for the kidneys, which are already damaged. So again we’re kidding and high pressure, so if you’re doing some exercise, what you should definitely do, just to keep your weight down, then please do something that makes you steady and consistent. Other sports that are not happy unfortunately football – short sprints and I stand – tennis – a short sprint, I stand – unless I play so comfortable tennis out of hand.

Gibt es auch Nierenversagen trotz normaler Flüssigkeitsausscheidung?

Yes, there is, and for many, very confusing, you can be on dialysis and excrete 2 liters of urine. The explanation is relatively simple. We all produce 150 liters of urine every day in our kidneys. If we were to eliminate all of them, I would probably be dead at 11 in the morning because I lost so much fluid, so my kidney has learned I can not eliminate it all, but I have to focus that and I concentrate those 150 liters on one and a half Liters down about. If kidneys are very sick now, then often this concentration mechanism is damaged and I separate from this 150 liters, which I actually produced actually 2 liters, but that’s just two liters, in which nothing was concentrated and that is virtually only water, where there are not enough toxins in it. This means,

Wie viel Flüssigkeit soll man bei Nierenversagen trinken?

So there is so in the people opinion, who has it on the kidneys should drink a lot. Please forget it now. Kidney failure, if any, leads to water retention in the body. That means if they have too much water in the body and then it makes no sense to drink 3 liters. A normal person, even those with kidney disease, should drink one and a half to two liters. What they drink is pretty bad, the main thing is fluid and there are very few situations in which they should consciously drink more. A situation would be, they have cystitis every few weeks and infections again and again. A situation is kidney stones, then it makes sense to flush, but in any other situation, please not more than one and a half to two liters and if they already have such fat legs,

Wie wird ein Nierenversagen am besten behandelt?

Of course that depends on the stage. For example, if I lost 50% kidney function, then my blood pressure needs to be well adjusted. Well set is called 130/80 or 125/75, then I should not smoke. Smokers, if they have kidney disease, are up to 10 times more likely to end up on dialysis. Every time I have a cigarette in my mouth, my blood pressure goes up. Then I should be of normal weight and then I really should not be diabetic or if I am diabetic, then have a very well adjusted sugar. When my kidney function is very low, many, many other things come along. The kidneys have an infinite number of functions and then I will have to maintain these functions as well as possible with a lot of tablets. This is possible with special vitamin D supplements, perhaps iron and the famous EPO to stimulate blood formation, to drugs that work against the accumulation of phosphate. So there are a lot of pills and, above all, they need a kidney specialist to take care of them, because that’s nothing more for a regular family doctor. This is simply a very complex disease.

Gibt es neue Behandlungsmöglichkeiten für Nierenversagen?

Not really for most diseases. We have a few, especially very rare illnesses for which we now have great treatment and where I can really help people. Unfortunately, for the 90% or most of the kidney disease, I have nothing but healthy living, good blood pressure, stop smoking, exercise, and so on, the usual story. In the field of blood washing is currently nothing. This is a very well established, very good procedure. Transplantation works very well now and of course there are these great hopes, I breed new kidneys. But if you alone know that in a kidney there are over 25 different cell types, that’s in comparison, my cardiological friends may forgive me for that twitching muscle that just does that and is their heart, really complex. That it is possible that we can manage to breed a kidney will take a long time.

Welche Frage wird Ihnen sehr häufig von Patienten gestellt?

I believe the concern that concerns many people is that my kidney function is bad; I have to dialysis sometime. What can I do? You can not turn back the past. If a kidney has been damaged by sugar for over 20 years, then I can not reverse it. But I can make sure it does not go downhill that fast. With many, many measures: proper nutrition, weight, blood pressure, smoking, are topics that you then have to discuss. The other question is of course: When do I have to dialysis? When is my kidney function too bad? We have, thank God, a huge reserve. I can lose 95% without needing dialysis. Yes, that is very late, but what we have learned in recent years is even if I now have 15% kidney function and dialysis is sort of gone, that’s not good either, because the risk of something happening to the cardiovascular system (heart attack, heart failure, stroke, etc.) increases dramatically as my kidney function decreases. Unfortunately, we are seeing more people dying on their way to dialysis, the long walk to come, because some catastrophe is happening in their hearts than actually reaching dialysis. So, make sure you’re in the hands of a competent doctor, and at the latest when kidney function has dropped below 30%, you should be in the hands of a kidney specialist. This is a complex disease and can make sure that it does not go downhill so fast,

Welche Frage/Antwort ist für Ihre Patienten überraschend?

I think the most surprising question is always: How much should I drink? Everyone in the people has heard before, who has something on the kidneys, should drink a lot. I always brake then. In particular, if you already have fat legs, it makes no sense to drink more or consciously about 2 liters, 3 liters or 4 liters to drink, but on the contrary. If the legs are already thick, there is enough water and too much water in the body, then it even makes sense to drink less than one and a half liters. For the majority of kidney patients one and a half to two liters of water drink. It’s pretty much what they drink, the main thing is that it’s liquid. That’s enough, unless you have a bladder infection after the next or you have kidney stones, then it may be useful to drink even 3 liters. But this idea, I have to rinse my kidneys, that’s humbug, that does not work. To: What should I drink? to stay, yes you can drink alcohol, but no, it must not be much. So it does not speak against the glass of wine or the bottle of beer in the evening. On the contrary, some kidney disease works even better with this moderate drinking, but it speaks a lot against 3 glasses of wine in the evening, because then the blood pressure goes up and kidney and high blood pressure is a very unholy alliance.

Was halten Sie bei Nierenversagen und zu seiner Prävention für besonders wichtig?

Healthy life, very easy. Everything else can kink you. Whether you go to the pharmacy now and buy kidney tea, the pharmacist will probably make a profit, you probably do not and most of the time he does not taste good.

Was kann man jenseits der klassischen Therapie noch tun?

The kidney is made of tiny veins and I think anyone can imagine quickly – like the garden hose – as soon as I turn up the pressure, then these veins fly around my ears. And if they are already inflamed and damaged, then they fly me right around the ears. So blood pressure and kidney is all dominating topic. Blood pressure in kidney diseases must be well adjusted: Good means 130/80 or 125/75 depending on the situation. Not much deeper, otherwise you will eventually tip out of the pines, but definitely not 140/90 or even higher. This must be adjusted well and if it costs a lot of drug, it costs just a lot of drug, otherwise you come in such a spiral in: high pressure damage kidney, diseased kidney drives up the blood pressure and then you can not get out there.

Welche Veröffentlichung haben Sie gemacht, die für Ihre Patienten besonders relevant ist?

Among the many, one is probably really important. We published a study in 2015 where we studied kidney disease for almost 10 years, called IgA nephropathy, and we investigated the question: if I control my blood pressure optimally and keep people moving, normalize weight, stop smoking, and so on, once I’ve done all this, does it bring any added value to this kidney disease, which is probably immune to treating these diseases with cortisone or immune medications? The answer is no. Our patients have had only a side effect, but no added benefit. This has attracted a lot of attention worldwide. But that is, one should certainly emphasize, for this disease IgA nephropathy. There are many other immune diseases of the kidney, lupus or ANCA vasculitis, to throw a tsunami into the room, which I have to treat with immune medications. But we have been very keen to point out this value of all these basic measures, so blood pressure down, weight down and so on.

Gibt es Medikamente, die die Nieren schädigen?

Yes, of course, quite a few drugs can damage the kidneys. Thank God that happens very rarely. Most of the medicines we have today are very safe. What I think is in the first place, are so-called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, these are the drugs that classically prescribed them to the orthopedist, because it hurts in the back or somewhere. So, to name names like Diclofenac, Voltaren, Ibuprofen, Indometacin. These are all medications which, mind you, in continuous use and not a tablet, can be harmful to the kidneys during long-term use. So someone who has high blood pressure and or kidney disease, should not take these drugs regularly. If you are in pain, then it is much safer aspirin or acetaminophen, which is also given to children,

Was mache ich, wenn meine Nieren völlig versagen?

If you are in Germany you have three options: transplantation, blood washing and peritoneal dialysis. Ideally, you end up dialysis or there is a threat of dialysis and there is already a donor ready, which gives them a kidney. That is rare. In the worst case, you have to wait for a kidney, then you have the misfortune that you are currently waiting in Germany for about 8 years. Organ donation numbers have plummeted dramatically as part of the organ donation scandal. Unfortunately, kidney, although it is the most common organ transplanted in Germany, has nothing to do with the organ donation scandal. I can not manipulate anything there and all the checks have revealed nothing in the kidney area. My patients are now suffering from the fact that there are so few organs Because so few organ donor passes are available in the population. So that’s the best case. 80% of people have kidney failure but are not transplantable for many reasons. Because a heart attack was already there, they would not survive the operation, or because they have any other comorbidities or simply because they are very old and frail. For these people, there are two options: either blood wash, three times a week for four to five hours in a dialysis center, there one goes, gets a connection to the arm, then the blood is removed, then in quotes, through the washing machine and goes back , Then you go home. Or, that would be the procedure I would do as a professional, you make peritoneal dialysis, in Germany very unknown and very uncommon, but for example in the Netherlands a quarter of all patients who do that, so not a bad procedure. Since you use the fact that my peritoneum is about one square meter, so the thin skin that covers the whole intestine from the outside, and I do washing solution (2 liters) in the stomach, leave the inside there and 4 hours later I leave the rauslaufen over a hose again. This tube is firmly in the stomach and it looks like urine and that’s what you do again and again. In the best case, you do that at night on a machine that stands on the bedside table. That means I clean my blood at night. During the day I am a free person and can go to work. that my peritoneum is about one square meter, so the thin skin that wraps the whole intestine from the outside, and I do washing solution (2 liters) in the stomach, leave that in there and 4 hours later I let run out of a tube again , This tube is firmly in the stomach and it looks like urine and that’s what you do again and again.

Infos zur Person

The fact that I wanted to become an internist was already clear during my studies. I then did research on kidney diseases as part of the doctoral thesis, and that’s just how I came to it. I think that’s a very typical way. Since 1999 I have been head of the Medical Clinic II at the University of Aachen. We are dealing with kidney and hypertension diseases. I was then president of the German Society of Nephrology for three years until 2016 and will become president of the German Society of Internal Medicine from 2019 and then my, in quotes, club has 25,000 members.

Infos zur Klinik

We are a university hospital and thus of course broadly based and responsible for everything that surrounds the area kidney and hypertension diseases drum. This ranges from the difficult to set high blood pressure to kidney diseases of all kinds, be it immune diseases, genetic diseases, sugar, whatever, about dialysis treatment, kidney transplantation, and we have become a certain focus in Germany for rare immune diseases of the kidneys, so Glomerulonephritis forms and here come patients from afar.
