Overview
Hemodialysis is a medical treatment that filters waste products, excess fluid, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys can no longer perform this function adequately. During the procedure, blood is circulated through a dialysis machine containing an artificial filter, or dialyzer, which removes harmful substances before returning the cleaned blood to the body. It is one of the principal therapies for advanced and end-stage kidney disease, helping to maintain fluid and electrolyte balance and to control the buildup of waste that would otherwise be life-threatening. Hemodialysis is typically performed on a recurring schedule and requires reliable vascular access, careful management of complications, and attention to the broader health of patients with kidney failure. Research relevant to this topic includes the use of bedside lung ultrasound to assess volume status in chronic hemodialysis patients, evaluation of the relationship between advanced oxidation end products and inflammatory markers in maintenance hemodialysis patients, and a study of patients' knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes toward home hemodialysis. Additional work has examined vascular access, such as arteriovenous fistula formation in a patient with anatomical variation. These studies address the clinical, technical, and patient-centered aspects of dialysis care. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to hemodialysis and the treatment of kidney failure.
