What Is The Prognosis For Dialysis Done On Child?

My niece is in the ICU for 3 weeks now and everyone is worried about her condition because the nurses and doctor at the hospital refused to take out the tub in her mouth out so that she can at least eat. My niece had two procedure done, one last week and one yesterday (dialysis). My niece is very cold and her hands and feet are turning dark purple. My niece will be 18 years old in March of this year. I am very sad because she is innocent just like all children around the world. She has not yet see what the future holds. Thank you very for helping.

Dear Madam,

Thank you for posting your query on HCM.

Well looking into your problem IT will not be possible to say anything because dialysis can be done for a variety of reasons , if it is done for acute renal failure she will improve but in case chronic kidney disease is there prognosis is worse .
