Hemodialysis by Dr Sriharsha Gurram

Haemodialysis is a medical procedure designed to perform the vital function of filtering waste products and excess water from blood, essentially mimicking the role healthy kidneys once played. This treatment also plays a crucial role in managing blood pressure and regulating essential minerals like Potassium, Sodium, and Calcium in the bloodstream.

How Hemodialysis Works

The Haemodialysis process involves the circulation of blood through an external filter called a Dialyzer, often referred to as an "Artificial Kidney." This Dialyzer is the key component responsible for purifying blood.

Operating in tandem with a Dialysis machine, the process begins with the machine pumping the patient's blood through the Dialyzer, where waste removal and mineral balancing occur. Throughout this procedure, the Dialysis machine continuously monitors blood pressure and regulates the rate at which blood flows through the filter, as well as the removal of excess fluids from the body.

Dr. Sriharsha Gurram (MBBS, MD Pediatrics, DNB Nephrology), one of the best nephrologists in Bangalore, specialises in various aspects of dialysis care. His expertise encompasses dialysis planning, optimising vascular access, and refining dialysis prescriptions. He believes dialysis patients can lead fulfilling, healthy lives despite their treatment.

Benefits of Hemodialysis

Patients undergoing dialysis typically experience a significant improvement in their overall well-being. This improvement is attributed to the removal of waste substances from the blood and the administration of medications that compensate for the kidney functions that are no longer viable. Consequently, patients often find that they can regain a sense of normalcy in their lives.
