Dialysis is a treatment process for those people whose kidney fails to purify the blood as they should. As a result of this kidney failure, wastes and toxins build up in the bloodstream and cause other symptoms. A dialysis machine hence takes over the work of your kidneys in purifying the blood and removing the wastes and toxins. Apart from that, there are many other chronic illnesses which require specific equipment to take over the function of our bodies like pacemakers, or to treat the chronic illness through surgery.
Types of Dialysis machine
