About this document
Peritoneal Dialysis by Banda Dhanu is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Peritoneal dialysis is a kidney failure treatment that uses the peritoneum in the abdomen to filter blood, requiring a catheter for fluid exchanges. There are two main types: Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD), which is manual, and Automated Peritoneal Dialysis (APD), which uses a machine. Patients must prepare for treatment through surgery, training, and lifestyle adjustments to manage their health and prevent complications.
