HEMODIALYSIS:
It is a treatment that consists of washing the blood, eliminating excesses of toxins and liquids. This is achieved thanks to a special filter helped by a machine known as artificial kidney.
PERITONEAL DIALYSIS:
It is a process by which waste and excess fluid are extracted from the blood of the patient with renal failure. This is achieved thanks to the exchange of a special liquid that is introduced into the abdominal cavity.
KIDNEY TRANSPLANT:
Surgical act that consists of transferring and implanting a healthy kidney (obtained from a donor) to the body of a person who has complete renal functional damage (chronic renal failure) and without the possibility of recovering it.
For this type of procedure, a series of extensive studies is required both for the kidney patient and for the person who will donate it.
IMPLEMENTATION OF CATETER FOR HEMODIALYSIS:
Surgical procedure through which a catheter (hose) is inserted or implanted inside a vein in the neck and through which blood is drawn to the hemodialysis machine for cleaning.
RENAL BIOPSY:
procedure that consists of extracting a fragment of renal tissue through a special needle puncture, biopsy guided with ultrasound in real time (percutaneous technique).
This study is considered as the ideal, for confirmation, prognosis and even to determine treatments of very rare diseases that attack the kidneys.
