Hemodialysis treatment is the process of adjusting the fluid and mineral balance while passing through a special filter (dialyzer) and transferring the blood back to the patient after it has been drawn from the patient via an appropriate vascular access (fistula – graft – catheter) with a dialysis machine.
The duration of this procedure is 4 hours and it is performed 3 times a week. The patients should maintain a balanced diet in order to keep a high life quality. They should be cautious with salt and water consumption and be careful with the consumption of vegetables and fruits.
