There are a few dialysis options to consider and can be discussed with your physician during your office visit: Hemodialysis In Hemodialysis treatment, blood passes from your body through a filter in the dialysis machine to remove waste and extra fluid from your blood. A vascular access is needed to create the entrance into the blood vessels to allow the blood to be removed and returned. Home Hemodialysis The ideal conditions of hemodialysis can also be performed in the home, with the help of training and family support. Our physicians in conjunction with the dialysis nurses and clinical staff would evaluate you once a month at the dialysis center. Peritoneal Dialysis In peritoneal dialysis treatment, your body uses the abdominal cavity as a filter to remove waste and excess fluid from your body. A soft plastic catheter is placed through the abdominal wall into the abdominal cavity. This procedure is performed in sleep, during travels or chooses to work while on dialysis.
