peritoneal dialysis fluid |
| Definitions |
The peritoneal dialysis is a technique that uses the patients own body tissues inside of the abdominal cavity to act as a filter. A special fluid is flushed into the abdominal cavity and washes around the intestines. The intestinal walls act as a filter between this fluid and the blood stream. By using different types of solutions, waste products and excess water can be removed from the body through this process. |
