Dialysis membranes must balance two critical ... However, even a single large pore can cause excessive leakage, compromising the membrane's performance. To tackle this, the researchers developed ...

The dialysis fluid is introduced into and removed from the peritoneal cavity, and the peritoneum is used as the dialysis membrane.

Inside the machine the blood and dialysis fluid are separated by a partially permeable membrane the blood flows in the opposite direction to dialysis fluid, allowing exchange to occur between the ...

One of the biggest advancements in kidney dialysis technology is the transformation of traditional dialysis machines into ...

Inside the machine the blood and dialysis fluid are separated by a partially permeable membrane the blood flows in the opposite direction to dialysis fluid, allowing a concentration gradient to ...

Hemodiafiltration (HDF) vs expanded hemodialysis (HDx) are 2 options that provide better toxin removal than conventional dialysis.
