Waste in the bladder is then eliminated through urination. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dialysis is used when a person&#8217;s kidneys are damaged or fail. The end stage of kidney failure is reached when only 10 to 15 percent of the kidney is functional.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dialysis is a treatment that uses a machine to filter and purify the blood in the person\u2019s body. This treatment helps keep the fluids and electrolytes balanced when kidneys fail to do their job. This treatment has been in practice for several decades to treat people with kidney problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 25px; color: #294694;\"><b>Types of Dialysis<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A person can undergo three dialysis types depending on their medical condition.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 25px; color: #294694;\"><b>Hemodialysis<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During this procedure, two needles are inserted into the patient\u2019s arm through the access site and taped in place to remain secure. Both these needles are then attached to a flexible tube that is connected to a dialyzer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This tube helps filter the patient\u2019s blood, a few ounces at a time, and the extra wastes and fluids are allowed to pass from your body into the dialysate, a cleansing fluid. After this, the filtered blood returns to the body through the second tube.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At last, your blood pressure is monitored to adjust the speed of the blood flowing in and out of your body.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 25px; color: #294694;\"><b>Peritoneal Dialysis<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This treatment requires the implantation of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter into the abdomen. With the help of PD, small blood vessels inside the abdominal lining filter the blood through the assistance of dialysis solution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PD takes place in your abdomen with the help of two methods: <\/span>Automated peritoneal dialysis, which uses a machine called a cycler, and Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (CAPD) is carried out manually.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 25px; color: #294694;\"><b>Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For people who are suffering from <a href=\"https:\/\/patialaheart.com\/nephrology.php\"><strong>acute kidney failures<\/strong><\/a>, this treatment is used for them primarily in the extensive care unit.
