What Is the Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis?

What Is the Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis for kidney failure patient. Dialysis can be pide into hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, they are all dialysis, but the difference is great. The difference not only lies on cost and condition but also on its essence. Then,What Is the Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis

The first difference between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis  is  their  principle.


What is the hemodialysis?
What Is the Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis
Hemodialysis is to establish a vascular pathway outside the human body, the blood into the dialysis machine, the blood of the waste and toxins removed, and then returned to the body. Equivalent to using dialysis machine as a "artificial kidney". Dialysis machine used in the basic principle of "dispersion phenomenon", that is, blood flow in the dialysis machine, the blood of electrolytes, trace elements can be returned to the patient through the semi-permeable membrane, and larger albumin molecules and urea molecules Can not pass, so that the waste from the blood out.
what is the peritoneal dialysis?
Peritoneal dialysis basic principles: that is, in the human body intubation, with the human body's peritoneum as semi-permeable membrane, the dialysate into the human body, in the body circulation, and then from the peritoneal catheter outflow, bring out the blood circulation generated "garbage."
Difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis

The second difference between hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis is the

ir Use method

One general difference between hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis is that hemodialysis is for those who still have some kidney function left, and peritoneal dialysis is for those who actually have kidney failure and are waiting for a kidney transplant. 
Hemodialysis: According to the level of creatinine and urine, the patient must go to the hospital 2-3 times a week, the doctor recommended 3 times a week, every 4-5 hours, must go to the hospital, there must be hemodialysis machine. Peritoneal dialysis: 2-4 times a day to replace the dialysis solution, respectively, after getting up in the morning, noon, after get off work, before going to bed, if the patient's physical fitness is better, can work as usual, do not have to go to the hospital, at home, do not rely on hemodialysis machine.

The third difference between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis is their effective.


Hemodialysis: hemodialysis development time is longer, the technology is very mature, more secure , efficacy and reliable, quick. Each time the creatinine up to about 30%.
Peritoneal dialysis: no extracorporeal circulation, more close to the physiological material exchange, 24 hours a day can be treated, the blood of the "garbage" can be sustained removal, blood biochemical indicators are relatively stable, can significantly improve the uremic patients Symptoms are associated with severe cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and older patients preferred dialysis methods.
In addition hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis have some shortcomings: hemodialysis: a large number of patients taking time, need to go to the hospital several times a week, spend a lot; hospital all kinds of patients mixed, there is a certain degree of cross infection; no hemodialysis machine Place can not carry out treatment. Peritoneal dialysis: the effect is relatively slow, but also depends on the patient's own peritoneal health status, every day need to change fluid, common complications for the infection. That is the difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis 
  In simple terms the difference Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis : hemodialysis quick, easy method, but rely on hemodialysis machine, and a waste of time, trouble, once the hemodialysis, at least 8 times a month hospital. Peritoneal dialysis can retain residual renal function. Need a one-time investment, easy, more humane treatment, not every day to the hospital for the home, the same excellent treatment, a lot of complications can not be hemodialysis patients can also be used peritoneal dialysis.
From the above on the difference between hemodialysis and abdominal penetration, we see, whether it is abdominal or hemodialysis, there are some shortcomings, in particular, will lead to the common shortcomings of complications. So there is no other way to treat uremia? Chinese medicine treatment of uremia, development to the present, there is a new breakthrough. Experts have led the expert group, through years of clinical practice developed a successful "Three kidney clear poison" therapy, is a pure Chinese medicine with the characteristics of therapy, is a different from the dialysis and kidney of the latest therapy. To "skin, sweat glands, acupuncture points," the line, the effective ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine to penetrate into the kidneys, thereby activating the kidney unit, so that the sclerosing glomerular sclerosis to restore normal physiological function, so that the kidneys get rehabilitation.

nephrotic syndrome nursing care plan

1.dietary intervention Nephrotic syndrome patients with hyperlipidemia can increased blood viscosity, hypoproteinemia, caused by insufficient effective blood volume, platelet hyperfunction and  nephrotic syndrome ,further exacerbating the hypercoagulable state, the thrombosis prone, the blood flow is slow, intravascular membrane damage, blood hypercoagulability is one of the three major factors of thrombosis, so the diet intervention on nephrotic syndrome patients, effective treatment of hyperlipidemia, prevention of thrombosis has important clinical significance, health education can strengthen the patients understanding of the complications of the disease , so as to establish effective compliance. First of all, responsible for the kidney disease patients repeatedly stressed the strict restriction of dietary fat and cholesterol intake. Fat content of not more than 30% of the total, cholesterol is not more than 300mg/d, encourage patients to eat more foods rich in unsaturated fa...

nephrotic syndrome nursing care plan

Nephrotic syndrome  is not an independent disease, but by a variety of kidney disease caused by the following common performance of a group of clinical syndrome: a large number of proteinuria, hypoproteinemia, water and hyperlipidemia. Do the nursing of patients with nephrotic syndrome and take the appropriate nursing measures to improve the quality of patients to overcome the physical and mental health, prevention of complications and promote disease recovery has a role can not be ignored. 1.Nursing care plan of nephrotic syndrome diet Nephrotic syndrome patients with hyperlipidemia can increased blood viscosity, hypoproteinemia, caused by insufficient effective blood volume, platelet hyperfunction and nephrotic syndrome,further exacerbating the hypercoagulable state, the thrombosis prone, the blood flow is slow, intravascular membrane damage, blood hypercoagulability is one of the three major factors of thrombosis, so the diet intervention on nephrotic syndrome patients, e...

What is Hypertensive Nephropathy?

Hypertensive nephropathy is due to long-term increase in blood pressure in patients, gradually lead to renal arteriosclerosis, renal unit atrophy or disappear, clinically this high blood pressure caused by changes in renal structure and function, known as hypertensive nephropathy. Hypertensive nephropathy can lead to polyuria, nocturia, and then reduce urine output. If you can not get active and effective treatment, will develop uremia. Treatment of hypertension nephropathy on the premise that the blood pressure must first be reduced to normal, to avoid the continued damage to the kidneys, while recovering damaged renal function, so as to achieve complete recovery. what is renal hypertension?     Unlike hypertensive nephropathy, renal hypertension is caused by the disease of the kidney itself, mainly due to renal parenchymal disease or renal artery stenosis, obstruction caused. Accounting for adult hypertension of 5% to 10%, is the main component of secondary hypertension...
