Kidneys remove waste products from the blood and thereby help regulate the fluid and electrolytes levels in the system. If the kidneys do not work properly, unwanted waste gets accumulated in the bloodstream, which if unremoved can lead to dangerous consequences. Hemodialysis is a process through which the waste is filtered artificially by means of a machine with special filters. Under this process, the blood is made to circulate outside the body and after removal of the toxins, the filtered blood returns to the patient’s system through another catheter. In other words, hemodialysis works like an artificial kidney.
Recently, a 7-bed Hemodialysis ward has been commissioned at Vijayendrar Block of Hindu Mission Health Services, Nanganallur with state of art equipments offering dialysis service at very affordable costs, (besides carrying out the process free of cost, for government beneficiaries). Dialysis is being performed under proper medical care, in a completely airconditioned room, keeping in mind patients’ comfort. The comfortable beds and the personal care extended by doctors and qualified technicians make the dialysis process absolutely patient friendly.
