Kidney Dialysis Treatment
Dialysis is a medical treatment used for individuals with kidney failure or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) to perform the functions that their kidneys can no longer adequately carry out. The treatment helps remove waste products, toxins, and excess fluid from the blood, maintaining the balance of important substances in the body.

Renal Diet
The renal diet, also known as the kidney diet, is a specific eating plan designed to help individuals with kidney disease or impaired kidney function manage their condition and maintain optimal health. The diet focuses on regulating the intake of certain nutrients and substances that can put additional strain on the kidneys or contribute to the buildup of waste products in the body.

What to Expect
Patients receiving dialysis treatment can expect regular sessions to remove waste products and excess fluids from their blood. Hemodialysis sessions typically last 3 to 5 hours, occurring 3 times a week, with potential side effects like low blood pressure and cramps. Patients on dialysis must follow dietary restrictions, control fluid intake, and may need to adjust their lifestyle to accommodate treatment. The experience can vary among individuals, so close communication with your healthcare providers is essential to address individual needs and concerns.
