Haemodialysis is a treatment that cleanses the blood of toxins, extra salts and fluids through a dialysis machine called ‘artificial kidney’. It helps maintain proper chemical balance such as potassium, sodium and chloride and keeps blood pressure under control.

Haemodiafiltration is a combination of haemofiltration and haemodialysis. Blood is pumped through the blood compartment of a high flux dialyzer and a high rate of ultrafiltration is used, so there is a high rate of movement of water and solutes from blood to dialysate that must be replaced by substitution fluid that is infused directly into the blood line. This combination is useful because it results in good removal of both large and small molecular weight solutes.
