Dialysis Therapy
Dialysis therapy is essential for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or severe kidney dysfunction, serving as a replacement for lost kidney function. There are two primary forms of dialysis: hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Hemodialysis involves filtering blood through an artificial kidney (dialyzer) to remove waste and excess fluids. This procedure is typically performed in a dialysis center, usually three times a week, with each session lasting several hours.
Peritoneal Dialysis
Peritoneal dialysis uses the patient's peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity) as a natural filter. A catheter is inserted into the abdominal cavity to introduce a dialysis solution, which absorbs waste products and excess fluids. This method can be done at home and is often preferred for its flexibility and fewer dietary restrictions compared to hemodialysis. Both types of dialysis require careful management of fluid and electrolyte balance and close monitoring for potential complications, such as infections or catheter issues. Dialysis therapy significantly improves patients' quality of life and provides crucial support until kidney transplantation or for patients who are not candidates for transplant.
