14. Dialysis (Summary)

15. What is ‘Dialysis’?
Dialysis is a process for removing waste and excess water from the blood, and used primarily to provide an artificial replacement for lost kidney function in people with renal failure.

In this way urea is removed from the blood without altering any of its features.

17. How to dialyse:

18. When is dialysis required?
Acute kidney injury
Acute renal failure

19. History of ‘Dialysis’
Dr. Willem Kolff, a Dutch physician, constructed the first working dialyzer in 1943.
Due to the scarcity of available resources, Kolff had to improvise and build the initial machine using:
sausage casings,
beverage cans,
a washing machine and various other items that were available at the time.
