Since patients with uremia have low immune function, they are easily invaded by various pathogenic microorganisms and have infections in different parts of the body, such as common upper respiratory tract infections and lung infections. In addition, intestinal infections and urinary tract infections can also cause fever. The pathogenic microorganisms that cause infection may be bacteria, viruses, fungi, mycoplasma, etc.
Once patients with uremia have a fever, they should undergo blood routine tests and other related imaging examinations. If accompanied by sore throat, nasal congestion and cough, the possibility of viral infection should be considered; if accompanied by frequent urination, urgency, and back pain, acute pyelonephritis should be considered, and antibiotics should be used to treat bacterial infections.
