What does a dialyzer (artificial kidney) do? A dialyzer isthe part in the hemodialysis machine where your blood gets filtered. The core of the dialyzer is made up of thousands of tiny mesh tubes. Your blood flows inside each tube, and the dialysate stays on the outside of the tubes. ...
@ Sevenseas- I knew things like alcohol and drugs are a no-no while undergoing dialysis, but I never realized that dialysis requires diet changes. This made me look into the treatment of kidney disease and I was surprised to find that there is a direct link between kidney disease and card...

The artificial kidney is made of two parts. One is for the blood and one is for the dialysate or the washing fluid.4 A thin membrane separates the blood filter from the dialysate filter. Smaller waste products in the blood, such as urea, potassium, and extra fluid, pass through the ...
That’s why the Catechism says the refusal of “extraordinary care” involves a “refusal of ‘over-zealous’ treatment. Here one does not will to cause death; one’s inability to impede it is merely accepted.” So what about dialysis? A dialysis machine monitors the transfer of dialysate...

In the past, we physicians witnessed this aluminium ‘toxicity’ of the brain in cases where the patient went through dialysis. The dialysate fluid contained aluminium, and actually diffused into the brain through the blood-brain barrier leading to aluminium intoxication. In some cases, the patient...
One consists in improving the hemocompatibility of the dialysis system mainly by using a dialyzer with low hemoreactivity and ultrapure, sterile, nonpyrogenic dialysate. The other consists in supplementing the deficiency patients with antioxidants. This could be achieved by oral or perdialytic ...
Recent data from the CANUSA study suggest that a high dialysate/plasma creatinine (DIP Cr ), when added as a time-dependent covariate to the Cox proportional hazard model using serum albumin as well as numerous other parameters, remains a powerful predictor of both death and technique survival ...
