Nowadays, there are no effective methods to alleviate the process from the initial CRF to ESRD. In clinic, the integrated therapy of traditional Chinese and western medicine is frequently adopted for CRF in combination with hemodialysis, but in the process of treatment, traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) nursing plays a key role.
