A vascular access is considered a kidney failure patient's lifeline if he/ she is on dialysis. Hemodialysis is a dialysis treatment procedure that uses a machine called the dialyzer to perform the normal functions of the failed kidneys, i.e. to remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood.
Hemodialysis
Hemodialysis, translated literally, is the process of separating blood.
hemodialysis
The suffix of hemodialysis is "-lysis."
The process is called hemodialysis. Blood is filtered through a machine that acts as an artificial kidney, removing waste products and excess fluids. The purified blood is then returned to the body.
The removal of waste products directly from the blood is known as hemodialysis. This process involves filtering the blood through a machine to remove excess waste, fluids, and electrolytes when the kidneys are not functioning properly. Hemodialysis helps maintain the balance of substances in the blood to keep the body functioning properly.
The process that removes toxic waste products from the body using a machine is called hemodialysis. During hemodialysis, blood is filtered through a machine known as a dialyzer to remove waste products and excess fluids before returning it to the body. This process is commonly used in individuals with kidney failure.
When comparing hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, it can be said that
Hemodialysis
hemodialysis takes longer than peritoneal dialysis
-lysis
Patients with kidney disorders need to be treated with dialysis. Devices that perform dialysis are simply called dialysis machines (dialyzers). For more information on dialysis follow the links below.
