Dialysis is a life-saving treatment for individuals whose kidneys can no longer function adequately. It performs the crucial functions of filtering waste, removing excess fluid, and balancing electrolytes in the body. There are two primary types of dialysis—Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis—each suited to different patient needs. Dialysis may be required temporarily in acute kidney injury or permanently in chronic or end-stage kidney disease.
Dr. Rashmi Algeri integrates the latest advancements in dialysis care to enhance safety, comfort, and treatment outcomes for each patient.
A Preemptive Kidney Transplant is done before dialysis begins, offering better health outcomes and faster recovery. It reduces complications and improves quality of life by avoiding the long-term effects of dialysis. This proactive approach is ideal for eligible patients with advanced kidney disease, promoting a smoother, healthier transplant journey.
Dialysis becomes essential when kidneys fail to carry out their basic functions. Common scenarios include:
A progressive loss of kidney function over months or years, eventually requiring dialysis. CKD is often caused by conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure and requires ongoing monitoring and treatment to delay progression.
The final stage of CKD where kidney function drops below 10-15%. At this stage, dialysis or a kidney transplant becomes essential to sustain life and maintain bodily functions.
Sudden loss of kidney function due to infection, trauma, or medication, which may require temporary dialysis. Prompt intervention often leads to recovery, but severe cases can progress to chronic kidney damage.
Dangerous levels of potassium or acid buildup that cannot be managed by medication alone. Dialysis rapidly corrects these imbalances, preventing cardiac and neurological complications.
When fluid accumulates in the lungs or tissues due to poor kidney function, dialysis helps remove it effectively. This is especially important in patients with heart issues or respiratory distress, where excess fluid can worsen symptoms.
Although dialysis is a critical treatment, it carries certain risks:
Dr. Rashmi Algeri ensures close monitoring and timely management to minimize these risks.
Ensuring a functional and long-lasting access point is vital. Advanced imaging and flow monitoring techniques are used to detect blockages or infections early, minimizing interruptions in treatment. Preventive care and timely interventions help maintain optimal access health.
Each patient’s dialysis frequency, duration, and modality are tailored based on lab results, lifestyle, and clinical needs. This individualized approach helps manage symptoms more effectively and improves quality of life.
Specialized renal diets are crafted to control fluid intake, balance electrolytes, and reduce toxin buildup. Patients receive ongoing counseling from trained dietitians to ensure they meet their nutritional needs while avoiding dialysis-related complications.
Strict hygiene practices, regular site inspections, and patient education reduce the risk of infections—especially in peritoneal dialysis and vascular access points. Protocols are updated with the latest clinical standards to ensure maximum safety.
