Dialysis
Dialysis is a process used to remove waste products, such as nitrogenous waste, excess electrolytes, and toxins, from the body. It is used to treat kidney failure, as well as other conditions, such as poisoning and severe electrolyte imbalances. It is also used to support critically ill patients whose kidneys are not able to effectively remove toxins from the bloodstream. Dialysis is an essential life-saving therapy for those with kidney failure, as it allows them to continue living a normal life, instead of relying on organ transplants to survive.
