Explanation: 

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: -Hemodialysis is a procedure where a dialysis machine and a special filter called an artificial kidney, or a dialyzer, are used to clean your blood.

Detailed explanation-3: -During hemodialysis, your blood passes through a tube into an artificial kidney or filter. The filter, called a dialyzer, is divided into 2 parts separated by a thin wall. As your blood passes through one part of the filter, special fluid in the other part draws out waste from your blood.
