There are 7 cases in the pre-renal failure (2%) in which five died
the fatality rate was 71.43%. 331 cases in the renal failure (18.1) (96.2%)
in which 60 died
the fatality rate was 71.4%
5 cases in the post-renal failure(18.1%) and one case is unknown
no death in the last two.The result showed that Epidemic haemorrhagic fever inducing A. R. F. is put in the first place. Fish gall bladder poisoning is put in the second place. Septicemia is put in the third place
but it is the main death cause in this study.This paper mainly discusses the pathogenesis as well as recent viewpoints and summarizes the experience of the treatment of Septicemia. It also emphasizes the early dialysis and prophylactic dialysis which can improve the prognosis and decrease the mortality rate.
