Question : What is dialysis or artificial kidney ?

Answer»

Solution :When kidneys lose their filtering efficiency, excessive amount of FLUID and toxic waste accumulate in the BODY. This condition is known as kidney (renal) failure. For this, an artificial kidney is used to filter the blood of the patient. The patient is said to be PUT on dialysis and the process of PURIFYING blood by an artificial kidney is called haemodialysis. When renal failure cannot be treated by drug or dialysis, the patients are advised for kidney tranplantation.
