Dialysis

Definition of Application

Dialysis removes toxins from the blood when the kidneys don’t function properly anymore. There are two types of dialysis:

• Hemodialysis is ongoing dialysis (3 to 5 times a week) that cleans your blood, usually in a dialysis center. The hemodialysis access is in your arm.
• Peritoneal dialysis is ongoing dialysis (daily) that collects waste from the blood by washing the empty space in the abdomen (peritoneal cavity). It can be done from home. The access for this is in your abdomen.
