So with PD dialysis i have a tube in my belly that hooks up to a machine each evening. It pumps a sugar solution into my abdomen, lets it sit there for about two hours, then sucks it back out, along with all the toxins and fluid my kidneys would usually have filtered out. Does that four times, takes about nine hours from start to end.
The catheter is curled, with a bunch of little holes, like a soaking hose, lol. It rests behind my bladder.
So every night I clean the catheter and hook up, and the first thing that happens is the machine sucks out any fluid that‘s already there. And since there is usuusually only a teeny amount of fluid the sucking ends up grabbing my DAMN BLADDER and it feels like the weirdest cramp ever.
Having your insides vacuumed is a unique experience, indeed. I can’t even describe it in words that would give it justice. Like a terrible menstrual cramp you feel from you belly to your back to your toes! Lol, at least I know its working!

Let's Talk ESRD and Dialysis
Have you thanked your kidneys today? Do you feel grateful when you pee? How about when you eat a little too much potassium or drink a little too much water, do you really enjoy feeling confident that your kidneys will just dispose of the excess?
If so, you probably know the alternative.
About 10% of the world's population has a condition called Chronic Kidney Disease, or CKD. About 2 million of those people are in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) and require dialysis or a kidney transplant to live.
Your kidneys are amazing things. They are two organs that sit outside of the sac that hold the rest of the abdominal organs, called the peritoneum. They take in blood from the body, determine the levels of electrolytes, water, and waste products in that blood, and remove the waste products and excess electrolytes and water.
They also have secondary tasks. They monitor the amount of red blood cells in your blood and send out hormones that entice the bone marrow to make more when we're low. They also monitor blood pressure and release hormones that raise that blood pressure when it gets low.
Lots of things can hurt the kidneys. For example, poorly controlled high blood pressure and poorly controlled diabetes are among the top reasons why kidneys fail. Additionally, being dehydrated while engaging in strenuous exercise or taking medications like ibuprofen or naproxen (any NSAIDs) can cause kidney damage.
We measure how well the kidneys are working via the Glomerular Filtration Rate, or GFR. This is a measure of (essentially) how much blood in milliliters the kidneys filter per minute. 90 or higher is normal, while a GFR of 15 or lower is considered ESRD.
So let's say someone has a GFR of less than 15 and the decision is made to start them on dialysis and put them on the kidney transplant list. What options do they have?
Well, they need to figure out if they want to do hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
In hemodialysis, the patient is hooked up to a machine that runs their blood across a special membrane. On the other side of the membrane, a solution called dialysate draws excess water, electrolytes, and waste products from the blood. Hemodialysis is usually done at a dialysis center for 3-5 hours, 3 times per week.
Hemodialysis is better for patients who have either failed home peritoneal dialysis or can't or aren't comfortable with doing the technical part of the job by themself at home. There is also a social component, where dialysis is a chance to meet and interact with other people who are going through the same things they are.
People who undergo hemodialysis have to have some kind of "access", or a way for the blood to come out of their body, go through a machine, and go back into their body. For some people, this is a dialysis catheter that is inserted into the person's chest and looks like this:
It can also be a fistula. A fistula is the surgical connection between a vein and an artery in the arm or leg. Over time, this connection becomes large and rubbery, and each time dialysis is done, two needles (one to remove blood, and one to return it) are placed in the fistula. A fistula often looks like this:
In peritoneal dialysis, the patient instills the dialysate directly into the sac that holds their abdominal organs. The sac itself acts as the membrane, and dialysate draws the electrolytes, water, and waste directly through the sac wall. They then wait a certain number of hours, and drain the dialysate. This can be done manually by the patient during the day, or at night while the patient sleeps with a machine called an automatic cycler. Usually peritoneal dialysis is done every day, with 2-4 cycles of 4 hours per cycle.
People using peritoneal dialysis also need a form of access, but instead of it being to their blood stream, it is to their peritoneum. Here's what that looks like:
The catheter is placed surgically into the peritoneum, and stays there all the time, even in between dialysis sessions.
Someone using peritoneal dialysis has to be very careful when they are accessing their dialysis catheter. This is because the biggest problem with peritoneal dialysis is the risk of a life threatening infection called peritonitis. Someone who gets peritonitis too many times may need to switch to hemodialysis.
Here is what a manual exchange looks ilke:
youtube
Someone may choose to do peritoneal dialysis over hemodialysis because it affords more freedom to keep a job or do daily tasks like keeping house. People who do PD also don't have to find rides to the dialysis center. However, they do have to take on more of the responsibility for making sure they do treatments correctly and be able to keep accurate records of the treatments they give themselves. Peritoneal dialysis also tends to be less taxing on the body, and have fewer side effects than hemodialysis when done correctly.

I forgot to mention this in my translation for BNHA No.387, but Geten is using his Quirk despite wearing the Quirk-suppressing shackles used at Tartarus and Atsuhiro/Mr. Compress is connected to some kind of machine with a tube inserted into his abdomen.
The illustrations show a slick coating of ice forming on the walls of Geten’s cell and misty condensation clouds flitting through his and Atsuhiro’s cells (the cold air is escaping Geten’s cell to enter Atsuhiro’s cell through the vent to Geten’s right). Their breath is visible as they exhale. It seems the Quirk-suppressing shackles don’t work on element-based Quirks like Geten’s. That’s a cool bit of info and great to know for all you fanfic writers. That would mean that the shackles would also not be effective on Touya’s Quirk, eh? That poses a problem now, doesn’t it, if we are to assume that Touya will survive the war and be imprisoned in Japan’s maximum security prison for people with especially tricky or dangerous Quirks? What’s to stop him from breaking himself (and his friends, assuming they survive) out of prison and disappearing into the night?
Moving on to Mr. Compress, I’m no medical expert, but I think that that equipment might be something like a peritoneal dialysis machine or artificial liver support system. In either case, the technology would be doing the job of filtering his blood of impurities and toxins that would otherwise build up in his body with life-threatening consequences and assisting with, or performing, other major functions of the liver.
The continued need for medical assistance to keep him alive means that Atsuhiro/Mr. Compress did, in effect, sacrifice his own life for Dabi, Toga, Spinner, and Tomura. He fully expected and was prepared to die for the sake of the League of Villains. Now, it seems the only thing standing between him and certain death is a machine.
Here are some educational resources for anyone interested in learning more about peritoneal dialysis or artificial liver support:

I’ve spent the last….17 years really dealing with chronic illness. And as stupid as it sounds I got my third chance and wish I hadn’t. I got my first transplant at 17. So from 14-17 I was in highschool having a hard time making friends because I missed school so often. Doctors appointments, aeronesp injections every week, additional surgery and dialysis. Preparing for organ transplant with the “you’ll be better after this”. I wasn’t invited to parties or have a lot of friends so I was basically invisible in highschool. Then you go to college and they feed you the bullshit line of “things will get better” but again I dont drink because kidney issues and then I got sick with pneumonia 4 times leading to additional issues. So again I put my head down and did the work I had to to graduate and didn’t make a ton of friends. I got out of university and started a decent job until I got fired for taking a day off to go to the doctor because I had pneumonia again. Leading to 2020 when I got laid off for asking for accommodations to work from home during covid (everyone else was laid off a week later) and I started a new job in Dec/2020. I was laid off Feb/2022 and then rushed into the hospital where my transplanted kidney failed…..I had done what they asked and it still failed. So I started dialysis and did everything they wanted. Got peritonitis 3 times, incredibly sick from low blood pressure where all I did was dialysis, sleep, and repeat. Now last November I got another kidney and I should be thankful because it’s another chance. But after that I had an allergic reaction to the meds causing me to be hospitalized with inflammation for a week, hydronephrosis where the transplanted kidney was swollen, then Covid, and now incredibly depression because I feel alone. 16 years later from my initial work up and I’ve lost all of my friends, and this “third chance” doesn’t even feel worth it anymore. They should have just let me end it in 2022 because this isn’t existing. All I do anymore is bloodwork, sleep, and panic about hospital bills.
This isn’t a post for really anyone I just wanted to write something because I’m over all of this.
What’s the point of all of this?

Hello FTC
So you all may have noticed I've been gone a little longer than I wanted to, well there are two reasons for that 1: My mom's kidneys are shutting down and she had to be put on Dialysis specifically Peritoneal Dialysis if you wanna know about that or are interested in learning about what it is you can go >> Here << I have been training on how to do her treatments how to drain and flush and all that good stuff. 2: I've fallen heavily into the Ghost / Ghost B.C fandom and I've been addicted to the characters and the music the Papa's own my entire soul VuV. Tomorrow is my last day of training and on Friday we're on our own with the treatments, I figured I should give a little update on stuffs.

Acute kidney failure, or acute kidney injury (AKI), is a critical condition that requires prompt and effective treatment to prevent serious complications. In Pune, several healthcare facilities, including Swanand Kidney Clinic, offer specialised care for this condition. Under the leadership of Dr. Snehal Shankar Gaikwad, a highly experienced nephrologist, patients can access various treatment options tailored to their specific needs.
Acute kidney failure occurs when the kidneys suddenly become unable to filter waste products from the blood. This can lead to a buildup of toxins, fluid imbalances, and other serious health issues. The causes of AKI can vary widely, including dehydration, infections, certain medications, and underlying health conditions such as diabetes or hypertension.
Treatment Options Available:
1] Hospitalization and Monitoring
Immediate Care: Most patients with acute kidney failure require hospitalization for close monitoring. This allows healthcare providers to assess kidney function continuously and make necessary adjustments to treatment.
Fluid Management: Patients may receive intravenous (IV) fluids to ensure proper hydration and support kidney function.
2] Dialysis
Renal Replacement Therapy: Dialysis is often necessary for patients with severe AKI. It helps remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood when the kidneys cannot perform this function.
Types of Dialysis:
Hemodialysis: Blood is filtered through a machine to remove toxins.
Peritoneal Dialysis: A sterile solution is introduced into the abdominal cavity to absorb waste products.
3] Medications
Addressing Underlying Causes: Treatment may involve medications to manage conditions contributing to AKI, such as antibiotics for infections or medications to control blood pressure.
Diuretics: These may be prescribed to help the body eliminate excess fluid.
4] Nutritional Support
Dietary Management: A renal diet may be recommended to reduce strain on the kidneys. This typically involves limiting protein, potassium, and sodium intake while ensuring adequate caloric intake.
5] Preventive Measures
Education and Awareness: Patients are educated about avoiding nephrotoxic substances (e.g., certain pain medications) and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to prevent future episodes of acute kidney failure.
6] Holistic Approaches
Some patients may explore complementary therapies alongside conventional treatments. Facilities like Swanand Kidney Clinic may offer guidance on integrating lifestyle changes and dietary modifications that support kidney health.
Symptoms of Acute Kidney Failure:
Acute kidney failure, also known as acute kidney injury (AKI), can manifest through various symptoms that may vary in severity.
Decreased Urine Output: A noticeable reduction in urine production, or even no urine output at all, is one of the primary indicators of acute kidney failure.
Swelling (Edema): Fluid retention can lead to swelling in the legs, ankles, and feet.
Fatigue and Weakness: Patients often experience significant tiredness or a general feeling of weakness.
Shortness of Breath: Difficulty breathing may occur due to fluid buildup in the lungs.
Confusion or Mood Changes: Alterations in mental status, including confusion or difficulty concentrating, can be signs of kidney dysfunction.
Nausea and Vomiting: Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea or vomiting may present themselves.
High Blood Pressure: Elevated blood pressure can occur as a result of kidney impairment.
Flank Pain: Some individuals may experience pain in the back, particularly between the ribs and hips.
Chest Pain or Pressure: In severe cases, patients might feel chest discomfort related to fluid accumulation or other complications.
Seizures or Coma: In extreme situations, acute kidney failure can lead to seizures or loss of consciousness.
In conclusion, acute kidney failure treatment in Pune is available through specialized clinics and hospitals led by experienced nephrologists like Dr. Snehal Shankar Gaikwad. If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms of acute kidney failure, it is crucial to seek medical attention immediately. Early intervention can significantly improve recovery outcomes and overall health.

Peritoneal Dialysis Market worth $12.70 Billion by 2029
The global peritoneal dialysis market is set to grow from USD 9.58 billion in 2024 to USD 12.70 billion by 2029, reflecting a robust CAGR of 5.8%. This expansion is largely driven by the rising prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), particularly among older populations, as well as a shift towards home-based treatment options. Notably, about 14% of U.S. adults are affected by CKD, with significant government support for peritoneal dialysis in countries like China, enhancing accessibility. Key players such as Baxter International, Fresenius Medical Care, and Medtronic are advancing technologies to improve patient care, yet the market faces challenges like underutilization in low-income regions and a critical shortage of skilled nephrologists. Emerging economies like India and Brazil present significant growth opportunities, especially with increased healthcare expenditure. The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest growth, fueled by an aging population and enhanced healthcare accessibility initiatives. As the market evolves, innovations in dialysis equipment and telemedicine are likely to further improve patient management and treatment outcomes, positioning peritoneal dialysis as a pivotal component of kidney care.

In this report, the peritoneal dialysis market has been segmented on the basis of offering, modality, disease indication, end user and region.
The peritoneal dialysis market is segmented into peritoneal dialysis machines, solution bags, catheters, transfer sets, other peritoneal dialysis products and services on the basis of offerings. Peritoneal dialysis solution bags accounted for the largest share of global PD market, as daily dialysis dictates the need for multiple bag consumption by every patient. In nature, as consumables, they require constant replenishment to meet demand and thus are constantly in high demand. Their very low cost and wide availability make them readily used in advanced and developing countries lacking the proper health facilities. CAPD, a "bag alone" service that uses solution bags without dependency on equipment, is another significant contributor to this market. PD machines, meanwhile, are expected to grow at the highest CAGR because of innovations that make treatment convenient enough to be done overnight with minimal intervention. In an era when patients and providers increasingly demand automated and home-based alternatives, APD machines are gaining tremendous popularity, especially in developed regions. Improved patient outcomes and increased awareness are further fuelling the demand for PD machines, putting the machinery in a great position to experience rapid market growth.
The peritoneal dialysis market is segmented into continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) on the basis of modality. Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) holds the largest market share of peritoneal dialysis market. CAPD is not expensive because, unlike hemodialysis, it does not require technical personnel or heavy machines, and long periods of hospitalization; thus, it is much less costly in contrast with the others when patients undergo treatment with them. Its cost-effectiveness makes CAPD an economically viable choice for both patients and health care systems. CAPD does indeed lower overhead costs that the healthcare facilities incur, especially in less developed regions with strained resources. With ready-to-use consumables like solution bags, CAPD smoothes the efficient use of healthcare resources for continuation of treatment. The cost burden on patients being much lower, health systems can use their resources much more effectively and thus reach a larger segment of the population in need. These cost benefits come coupled with the simplicity and autonomy that CAPD lends to patients, which have been mainly driving a continuous increasing trend in its adoption into a mainstay of the global peritoneal dialysis market.
The peritoneal dialysis market is segmented into end-stage renal disease, acute kidney injury and other disease on the basis of disease indication. End-stage renal disease holds the largest share in the global peritoneal dialysis market and expected to grow at the highest CAGR. Increasing incidence of diabetes and hypertension serve as some of the significant risk factors that contribute to renal failure. As the prevalence of these chronic conditions increases across different parts of the world, more people have been developing ESRD and requiring renal replacement therapies such as dialysis. Diabetes and hypertension may lead to chronic and progressive damage to the kidneys, hence the need for effective management options such as peritoneal dialysis. In comparison with in-center hemodialysis, this modality has an added advantage to the patient in that it allows home-based treatment, giving the patient more flexibility and choice.
The peritoneal dialysis market is segmented into home care settings, hospitals & independent dialysis centers and other end user on the basis of end user. Home care settings accounted for the largest share in the global peritoneal dialysis market and expected to grow at the highest CAGR. Home care for dialysis saves patients a lot of time and incurs lesser costs because frequent hospital visits can be very tiring for patients and also costly. With home dialysis, most of the costs associated with hospitals, such as transportation and facility fees, are washed away, and it becomes quite economical for patients and health care. Cost-effectiveness, is most important in managing chronic diseases like end-stage renal disease. Additionally, home care treatment schedule can be more flexible and adjusted to the individual needs, without the burden on the healthcare facilities or health care resources at large.
The peritoneal dialysis market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa and GCC Countries on the basis of geographic region. North America holds the largest share of the peritoneal dialysis market in 2023. North America, has a well-developed healthcare system that can be described as having high technology and extensive medical facilities. With these sorts of robust infrastructures, peritoneal dialysis services are thus delivered efficiently so that the patients are provided with good quality care and latest innovations in their treatment. Its hospitals and clinics are supplied with high-end apparatuses and facilities to ensure effective management and monitoring of dialysis procedures. Furthermore, the availability of well-trained care providers who specialize in nephrology increases the result outcome as they can handle various cases that are peculiar to individuals. Such an advanced healthcare scenario facilitates the adoption of peritoneal dialysis with the discovery and development of newer ideas since this continuously aids in improving the standards of treatment protocols and technologies. Over time, this creates patient-friendly therapies with improved quality of life, thus throwing North America in an even more dominant position in the global peritoneal dialysis market.

More than 86 percent of healthcare providers surveyed across the US are experiencing shortages of intravenous fluids after Hurricane Helene's rampage took out a manufacturing plant in western North Carolina that makes 60 percent of the country's supply. IV fluids are used for everything from intravenous rehydration to drug delivery. The plant also made peritoneal dialysis fluids used to treat kidney failure. Premier, a group purchasing organization for medical supplies that counts thousands of hospitals and health systems among its members, surveyed 257 such providers earlier this week. The poll makes clear that supplies are unsurprisingly imperiled. In the poll, 88 percent of providers said they were receiving less than half of their requested orders, and about 54 percent said their supplies were down to 10 days or less, which is below the typical on-hand supply of 15 to 22 days. Most strikingly, nearly 17 percent said they had already begun postponing elective surgeries and other procedures. And 78 percent said they would be forced to do the same if the current situation persists over the next month.
