Dialysis

Kidneys are a pair of organ that filters the blood by eliminating toxins and other waste from the body. When the kidneys fail to perform its function effectively, dialysis treatment performs these functions and ensures the balance of electrolytes and fluids.

There Are 3 Types Of Dialysis

Hemodialysis

This is the most common type of dialysis that uses the hemodialyzer machine. The blood is extracted from the body and is passed through the machine from which it removes all the waste and is then the filtered blood is returned to the body.

Peritoneal Dialysis

This dialysis type initially requires a minor surgery in which a Peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter is implanted inside the abdomen. This catheter keeps filtering the blood through a layer of the abdomen called the peritoneum, and remove toxins effectively.

Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)

This process is also known as hemofiltration and is recommended to people with acute kidney failure. It is a continuous process that uses a similar mechanism as hemodialysis.

ILS Hospitals offers dialysis for patients who are suffering from kidney failure to help them live a healthy life.
