Understanding Hemodialysis & Peritoneal Dialysis: Indications, Benefits, and Risks with Dr. A Kishore Kumar

PACE Hospitals

Dialysis is a life-saving procedure for individuals with kidney failure, where the kidneys can no longer filter waste from the blood. Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis are two main types, each with unique benefits. Hemodialysis involves using a machine to filter blood, commonly indicated for patients with advanced kidney disease. Peritoneal Dialysis uses the lining of the abdomen to filter waste and is often preferred for those seeking more independence. While both treatments offer significant advantages, such as improved quality of life, they may carry complications like infection, low blood pressure, or fatigue, making careful medical supervision essential.
