A dialysis technique that uses the patient's own body tissues inside the belly (abdominal cavity) as a filter. The intestines lie in the abdominal cavity, the space between the abdominal wall and the spine. A plastic tube called a dialysis catheter is placed through the abdominal wall and into the abdominal cavity. A saline fluid called dialys [..]

The process of filtering the blood when the kidneys are not able to cleanse it.

Dialysis is the separation of components in a mixture by passing them across a semipermeable membrane.

A procedure used to get waste out of the blood when the kidneys are unable to function

A method of removing waste materials from the body when the kidneys are not working properly.

a procedure by which a machine is used to replace kidney functions in patients with diseased kidneys.

1580s, from Latin, from Greek dialysis "dissolution, separation" (of the disbanding of troops, a divorce, etc.), from dialyein "dissolve, separate," from dia- "apart" + l [..]

An artificial method of removing waste substances from the blood and regulating levels of circulating chemicals—functions usually performed by the kidneys.

A process of filtering and removing waste products from the bloodstream.

dialysis (pop)

haemodialysis

Separation of solute molecules in solution by means of their different rate of diffusion through a differentially-permeable membrane.

Removal of small molecules from a macromolecule preparation by allowing them to pass across a semipermeable membrane.

medical treatment used when kidneys fail. Special equipment filters the blood to rid the body of harmful wastes, salt, and extra water.

(dy-AL-ih-sis) the process of cleaning wastes from the blood artificially. This job is normally done by the kidneys. If the kidneys fail, the blood must be cleaned artificially with special equipment. The two major forms of dialysis are hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.

(n) separation of substances in solution by means of their unequal diffusion through semipermeable membranes

The process of cleansing the blood when the kidneys are not able to filter the blood.

Dialysis is an important treatment that helps remove wastes and excess fluids from the body when the kidneys fail. It is a process that effectively ‘cleans the blood.’

  Dialysis is a medical treatment that is typically considered when an individual’s own kidneys no longer function adequately to support their body’s needs.  Dialysis is usually provided at a dialysis center and most people needing dialysis receive this medical treatment 3 to 4 times each week.

the separation of a colloid from a substance in solution by allowing the solution to diffuse through a semipermeable membrane.

a medical procedure to filter waste products from the blood. Dialysis is needed to perform the work of the kidneys if they can no longer function effectively. Two types of dialysis are hemodialysis an [..]

A process of selective Diffusion through a Membrane. It is usually used to separate low-molecular-weight solutes which diffuse through the Membrane from the colloidal and high-molecular-weight solutes [..]

Long-term Maintenance Hemodialysis in the home.

Dialysis fluid being introduced into and removed from the Peritoneal Cavity as either a continuous or an intermittent procedure.

Therapy for the insufficient cleansing of the Blood by the Kidneys based on Dialysis and including Hemodialysis, Peritoneal Dialysis, and Hemodiafiltration.

A process of selective diffusion through a membrane. It is usually used to separate low-molecular-weight solutes which diffuse through the membrane from the colloidal and high-molecular-weight solutes [..]

the process of cleaning wastes from the blood artificially. This job is normally done by the kidneys

When the kidneys do not work adequately toxins, acid and fluid accumulate in the body. The process of dialysis helps removes this from the body to keep patients with severe kidney failure alive. Somet [..]

The process of filtering the blood when the kidneys are not able to cleanse it.

a treatment for kidney disease in which the blood is filtered through a machine to remove waste products

a procedure in which a special machine, called a dialysis machine, filters out waste products from a person's blood.  The filtering is based on  the rates of diffusion for different substances in the blood as they pass through a permeable membrane.  

a treatment for kidney failure. Normally, the kidneys work to filter the blood and remove waste, excess salt, and water. Kidney failure, also called “end-stage renal disease,” occurs when the kidneys stop working completely. During hemodialysis, a machine takes over the job of the kidney by filtering the blood outside of the body, and then returnin [..]

The selective separation of dissolved or colloidal solids on the basis of molecular size by diffusion through a semipermeable membrane.

The separation of components of a solution by diffusion through a semi-permeable membrane which is capable of passing certain ions or molecules while rejecting.

Removal of small molecules from a solution of a macromolecule, by allowing them to diffuse through a semipermeable membrane into water or buffer.

A process of filtering and removing waste products from the bloodstream.

a treatment for kidney disease that removes waste from blood. Used when the kidneys cannot perform their normal waste removal function. (Also called hemodialysis.)

A mechanical process designed to partially perform kidney functions, including correcting the balance of fluids and chemicals in the body and removing wastes. See Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis

Used in cases of kidney failure, a procedure for removing waste products from the blood by filtering the blood through a mechanical membrane.

(chemistry) A method of separating molecules or particles of different sizes by differential diffusion through a semipermeable membrane. (medicine) Haemodialysis. * title=A better waterworks|date [..]

The process of extracting harmful substances from the blood when the kidneys no longer can.

An artificial means of cleansing the blood of waste products and removing fluids from the body when the patient's own kidneys are unable to continue this process.

The process of cleansing the blood when the kidneys are not able to filter the blood.

When a patient's kidneys are unable to filter blood, the blood is cleaned by passing it through a dialysis machine. Disease-free survival

a treatment for kidney disease that removes waste from blood. Used when the kidneys cannot perform their normal waste removal function (Also called hemodialysis).
