Abstract:
The study was carrried out on 30 patients with chronic renal failure due to different causes with creatinin clearance of 14± 5.5ml/min. Results: in 17 cases, serum creatinine of 6.4mg% before treatment decreased to 4.2mg% after treatment (P<0.005). Average serum protein of 6.5mg% before treatment increased to 7.02mg% after treatment (P<0.005). Average serum creatinine level didn’t change after treatment (5.4mg% versus 5.3mg%) in 8 cases, along with average serum protein level of 7.1g% before treatment decreased to 6.8g% after treatment in 8 cases. In this group, there was one death due to falling down from the staircase but consequence of treatment. In two groups, average Hb and Hct of 7.8g% and 25% before treatment increased to 11.1g% and 32.1% after treatment
