In medicine, renal dialysis is "therapy for the insufficient cleansing of the blood by the kidneys based on dialysis and including hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and hemodiafiltration."[1]
Renal dialysis may be used as treatment for acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease.
- Dialysis can be delayed until the glomerular filtration rate is 7.0 ml per minute in the absence of other indications.[2]
- Six times a week of hemodialysis may be better than three times a week hemodialysis .[3]
Prognosis
About 1 in 12 patients who require temporary renal dialysis will eventually require chronic renal dialysis within 3 years.[4]
The role of dialysis in nursing home residents is not clear.[5]
