Definitely, your number will be low like many others. It indicates that kidney health has minor importance for you. But it needs to be a top priority for every individual. Because the kidneys are among the body\u2019s organs that work continuously to support life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The major functions of the kidneys are to remove harmful waste and products from the body through urine. Filtration of the blood is another important function that the kidneys perform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the kidneys are not healthy or don\u2019t work properly, harmful wastes and fluids don\u2019t pass from the body. The removal of these products from the body is essential as their high buildup can lead to fatal conditions. In the situation when the kidneys don&#8217;t remove waste, dialysis becomes necessary for patients whose kidneys don\u2019t remove waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dialysis is the most effective method to purify the blood and remove extra fluids from the body. A kidney failure patient, who is going to get dialysis in the near future, tends to find answers to some questions. For instance, this patient wants to know: what is dialysis, which are the types of dialysis, and what are the side effects of dialysis?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding answers to all these questions can be a back-breaking process. But giving a read to this guide will help you in understanding dialysis and all the questions related to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_17 counter-hierarchy

from Healthwire!<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"types_of_dialysis\"><\/span>Types of Dialysis<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, nephrologists and other healthcare specialists perform dialysis in two ways. It means that dialysis has two types. However, dialysis has also a third type but it is not common. The doctors reserve the third type for <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/diseases\/acute-kidney-injury\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">acute kidney failure<\/a>. Let\u2019s take a look into these three (two common and one uncommon) types!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"hemodialysis\"><\/span>Hemodialysis<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>People are aware of hemodialysis because it is a common procedure and type of dialysis. Before performing this procedure, a surgeon places a needle in the neck, chest, leg, or arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During hemodialysis, the healthcare specialist attaches a tube to this needle and the needle has a connection with a machine. Blood moves into the machine through the tube and the machine filters. After filtration, blood moves back to the body and the process continues unless the blood is completely pure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hemodialysis lasts almost four hours. And the need to get this procedure depends on the functioning of the kidneys. Some patients need hemodialysis three times a week and this number can increase up to six times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Is it possible to prevent hemodialysis?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/healthcare\/foods-good-for-the-kidney\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eating good foods and avoiding harmful ones<\/a> will make your kidneys healthy. The kidneys will become more effective and perform their functions efficiently. Health maintenance of the kidneys over time will reduce the risk of hemodialysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Preventing hemodialysis is a must because it can affect the quality of life. <a href=\"https:\/\/rrtjournal.biomedcentral.com\/articles\/10.1186\/s41100-021-00382-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">According to a study<\/a>, if the time period of hemodialysis increases for months or years, it can decrease quality of life. Other studies also found similar effects of hemodialysis on quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"peritoneal_dialysis\"><\/span>Peritoneal Dialysis<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Peritoneal dialysis is the second type of dialysis. In peritoneal dialysis, the peritoneum of the abdomen works as a filter rather than a machine. The peritoneum is present inside the lining of the stomach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you know, the kidneys have thousands of tiny blood vessels that help in filtering the blood. Similarly, the peritoneum also has these vessels in thousands which makes it a perfect choice for filtering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before starting peritoneal dialysis, a surgeon or nephrologist gives a small cut near the belly button and inserts a catheter in the peritoneal cavity. This catheter will permanently remain in the peritoneum. However, it can be removed if your kidneys start functioning again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the procedure, a doctor places a fluid (dialysate) inside the peritoneal cavity. This fluid absorbs all the waste from the blood and then the doctor draws out the waste through the catheter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"effective_tips_from_dr_awais_zaka_to_avoid_kidney_damage\"><\/span>Effective Tips from Dr. Awais Zaka to Avoid Kidney Damage <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>From MD Health Center, <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/doctors\/lahore\/internal-medicine-specialist\/dr-awais-zaka-4106323\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Awais Zaka<\/a> also explains dialysis in detail, especially peritoneal dialysis.

In CRRT, nephrologists also use a machine to filter blood and remove extra and harmful waste.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, healthcare specialists reserve this type of dialysis for patients with acute kidney failure. Patients with acute kidney failure have two options: dialysis or kidney transplant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suggested Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/healthwire.pk\/healthcare\/best-kidney-transplant-hospitals-in-lahore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best Kidney Transplant Hospitals in Lahore<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No doubt, every type of dialysis helps kidney patients in filtering their blood.
