PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Hemodialysis is a treatment to filter wastes and water from your blood, as your kidneys did when they were healthy. Hemodialysis helps control blood pressure and balance important minerals, such as potassium, sodium, and calcium, in your blood.

Detailed explanation-2: -Dialysis tubing is a semi-permeable membrane, usually made of cellulose acetate. It is used in dialysis, a process which involves the removal of very small molecular weight solutes from a solution, along with equilibrating the solution in a new buffer. This can also be useful for concentrating a dilute solution.

Detailed explanation-3: -Dialysis is a procedure to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys stop working properly. It often involves diverting blood to a machine to be cleaned.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hemodialysis uses a machine to pull blood out of the body, filter it, and pump the clean blood back into the body again. The actual filtering happens in a part of the machine called a dialyzer, or artificial kidney.
