Speciality: Nephrology

Description:

Dialysis is a medical treatment used when your kidneys are no longer able to effectively filter waste and excess fluids from your blood. This can happen due to chronic kidney disease or sudden injury to the kidneys. Dialysis helps maintain your body’s balance by removing toxins, extra salt, and water, which keeps you healthy while waiting for a kidney transplant or if a transplant is not an option. It’s typically recommended when kidney function drops below 10 to 15 percent of normal capacity and symptoms like fatigue, swelling, or trouble breathing appear. Understanding when dialysis is needed can help patients and families make informed decisions about treatment and quality of life.
