Detailed explanation-1: -There are two kinds of dialysis. In hemodialysis, blood is pumped out of your body to an artificial kidney machine, and returned to your body by tubes that connect you to the machine. In peritoneal dialysis, the inside lining of your own belly acts as a natural filter.
Detailed explanation-2: -What happens during dialysis. There are 2 main types of dialysis: haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Compared with conventional hemodialysis, HDF removes more middle-molecular-weight solutes. Some, but not all, studies have shown improved survival with HDF compared with conventional hemodialysis, provided that adequate convection volumes are achieved.
Detailed explanation-4: -The two principal modes of dialysis for patients with ESKD are haemodialysis (HD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). An artificial kidney (dialyser) is used in HD, which contains a semi‐permeable membrane.
Detailed explanation-5: -There are 3 main types of dialysis: in-center hemodialysis, home hemodialysis, and peritoneal dialysis. Each type has pros and cons. It’s important to remember that even once you choose a type of dialysis, you always have the option to change, so you don’t have to feel “locked in” to any one type of dialysis.
