#what is Peritoneal Dialysis

[krisantium]

I know that season 2 is all about build-up but I still disappointed at how little we got about the Hwang Brothers so I entertain (and bully) myself with headcanons I made up inside my head.

By the time their father married Junho's mom, Inho was already a teenager (probably around 15-17 yo). Junho was born shortly after that so that explains the huge age gap between these two (we know Inho was born in 1976 from his player databook so it makes him 48 last season while Junho is probably still in his early 30s considering the actor's age).

Inho spent years being an only child and the prospect of having a sibling when he is already a big boy scares and excites him at the same time. When he knew that the sibling is a boy, his excitement grew and he instantly fell in love with his baby brother since the first time he came into this world

Their father passed away when Junho was still too young to remember and understand what and how a father is like. The situation only makes Inho's sense of love and protectiveness towards his brother grew bigger. He can't let his baby brother grows up without a father figure to guide him, so he became one. Inho was not only a brother but a father figure to Junho

When Junho was about 10 years old, he suffered from a chronic kidney disease. He is intolerant to hemodyalisis and someday his peritoneal dialysis machine didn't work anymore and it nearly took him. Inho was already a policeman by that time. On his graduation day, the sick Junho once told him that he will become a policeman too in the future, just like his brother. When he got a call from home telling him that his brother is in the hospital again and is very sick because his machine failed, he rushes as soon as he can. He find a very pale, nearly lifeless Junho still able to smile at him when he's at his door. Inho already made a choice by then. "I'll do anything to watch you become a policeman," he said while hugging his baby brother. Months later the transplantation took place.

The very young Junho nearly got a panick attack before they both get into the operation room. He was still a child after all. Inho did everything he can to calm him. Junho was first to get sedated and his last memory before shutting down was his brother's hand reaching for his.

Life is good again, and as he promised, he wacthed Junho grows and become a policeman, just like him. Junho's whole world really revolves around his brother.

If only we get their backstory more (hope we will in S3), because, everything, the story in whole would have been much more simpler, less complicated if they don't love each other that much. Junho went through hell to find his brother, only to get shot by the said brother and have a near death experience. Would have been easier if he just let go after that. While for Inho, why didn't you just shot your brother in the head? Even a non fatal shot to your brother makes your hands trembling and haunts you in your sleep. Where is the merciless phsyco with records of mass murder?

The backstory is so needed. To some people, their actions towards each other may not make sense.

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:

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 did not have annoying medical inaccuracy on my bingo card for this week's episode of My Stand-In, then again I don't know what I've expected. Inaccuracy is like the Spanish Inquisition. Bane of my existence, the thorn under my nail.

Joe's mom gets hospitalised due shortness of breath. The doctors diagnose pulmonary oedema, caused by end stage renal disease / kidney failure. So far we're good, and I appreciate chosing something outside the usual cancer/heart disease pool.

But then the doctor tells Joe, that his mother has septicaemia and requires lifelong hospital treatment to stay alive.

First of all, what an ESRD patient has is called uraemia not septicaemia. Those are very different things. Idk if the mistake is on the scriptwriter's part or on the translator's, and I'd be grateful if someone who spoke Thai could tell me!

Second of all, dialysis is usually done by outpatient treatment! Although Joe's mom would have to visit a dialysis station every three days for the rest of her life, she would be able to live her life outside of the hospital! And that is without considering alternative treatments like peritoneal dialysis or a kidney transplant.

The two options for my second points are either the Doylist bad writing (bleh) or the Watsonian the doctor is trying to scam Joe. Which is ridiculous, but in this series, a crazy sublot like this might fly...

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.

These settings offer controlled environments, experienced medical staff, and advanced equipment, ensuring high-quality and consistent care. Additionally, patients new to dialysis or with complex health conditions often begin treatment in clinical settings, further reinforcing this segment’s market position.

Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Global Demand for Dialysis Treatments: A key driver for the dialysis concentrates and solutions market is the rising global burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). As more patients require ongoing dialysis—often three sessions per week—the demand for dialysis solutions continues to rise significantly. The expansion of dialysis centers, especially in emerging economies, further fuels this demand. These regions often prioritize cost-effective, large-volume dialysis products, such as multi-dose concentrates, to meet growing healthcare needs efficiently.

Evolving Healthcare Infrastructure and Access: Government initiatives and policy reforms aimed at improving access to CKD treatment have also led to increased dialysis volumes worldwide. With more patients entering long-term dialysis programs, the consistent need for dialysis concentrates and solutions contributes directly to market expansion.

Opportunities in Biocompatible and Eco-Friendly Dialysis Solutions: A promising opportunity lies in the development of biocompatible and environmentally sustainable dialysis concentrates. Traditional dialysate formulations can trigger adverse reactions due to their acidic pH or stabilizing agents. As a response, manufacturers are investing in R&D to develop gentler, patient-friendly solutions that reduce inflammation and oxidative stress.

In addition, there's a growing demand for sustainable dialysis products that align with global environmental goals—such as reducing plastic use, packaging waste, and resource consumption during production. These innovations not only address environmental concerns but also appeal to healthcare providers and regulators seeking safer, eco-conscious solutions.

A Comprehensive Guide to Dialysis Machines: Types, Cost & Leading Suppliers

Kidney failure is a life-altering condition, and dialysis serves as a critical treatment to perform the functions that failing kidneys can no longer handle. Among the many innovations in renal care, the dialysis machine stands out as a cornerstone of treatment for patients with chronic kidney disease. In this guide, we explore what a dialysis machine is, how it works, the factors that affect the dialysis machine price, and why choosing the right dialysis machine suppliers is crucial for hospitals and healthcare providers.

What is a Dialysis Machine?

A dialysis machine is a sophisticated medical device designed to remove waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys can no longer perform these vital functions. It acts as an artificial kidney, filtering the patient’s blood and helping maintain electrolyte and fluid balance.

There are two primary types of dialysis:

Hemodialysis – This method uses a dialysis machine and a special filter (dialyzer) to cleanse the blood. It’s typically performed in hospitals or dialysis centers.

Peritoneal Dialysis – This process uses the lining of the abdomen (peritoneum) and a cleansing solution to filter the blood inside the body.

Hemodialysis requires a reliable and efficient dialysis machine that ensures consistent treatment cycles, patient safety, and operational efficiency.

How Does a Dialysis Machine Work?

The working principle of a dialysis machine is based on diffusion and osmosis. During hemodialysis:

The patient’s blood is drawn through a catheter or arteriovenous fistula.

The blood flows through a dialyzer, where it comes into contact with a specially formulated dialysis solution (dialysate).

The dialyzer filters out urea, creatinine, and excess electrolytes, while maintaining essential blood components.

The cleaned blood is then returned to the patient’s body.

Modern dialysis machines are equipped with advanced sensors, alarms, and real-time monitoring systems to ensure precision and safety during each dialysis session.

Dialysis Machine Cost: What Factors Influence Pricing?

The dialysis machine cost varies significantly based on several factors. Understanding these variables helps healthcare providers make informed purchasing decisions.

1. Technology and Features

Advanced machines with automated controls, touch-screen interfaces, blood leak detectors, conductivity monitors, and online clearance monitors tend to be priced higher due to their sophistication.

2. Brand and Manufacturer

Reputed dialysis machine suppliers such as Trivitron offer state-of-the-art machines designed with patient safety and operational excellence in mind. Investing in quality ensures long-term reliability and lower maintenance costs.

3. New vs. Refurbished Machines

While new machines come with warranties and the latest features, refurbished units are more budget-friendly but may require higher maintenance over time.

4. Accessories and Consumables

Consumables such as dialyzers, blood tubing sets, and concentrates are essential for each treatment. The total dialysis machine price often includes these consumables as part of bundled offerings.

5. After-Sales Service and Maintenance

Comprehensive service agreements, staff training, and timely technical support are critical. Suppliers offering strong post-purchase support may factor these into the total pricing.

Average Dialysis Machine Price in India

The dialysis machine price in India can range from ₹4 lakhs to ₹12 lakhs or more, depending on the brand, model, and features. Here’s a general breakdown:

Basic models (with essential features): ₹4 – ₹6 lakhs

Mid-range models (with digital display and semi-automation): ₹6 – ₹9 lakhs

High-end models (fully automatic with advanced safety features): ₹9 – ₹12 lakhs+

It’s important to note that while upfront costs matter, operational costs, machine lifespan, and service support play a major role in overall investment returns.

Why Choose Trivitron as Your Dialysis Machine Supplier?

As one of India’s leading medical technology companies, Trivitron Healthcare offers reliable, advanced, and user-friendly dialysis machines tailored for diverse healthcare settings. Here's why hospitals and dialysis centers prefer Trivitron:

Dialysis Services: A Lifeline of Care and Precision Treatment

Kidneys are the silent heroes of the human body, filtering toxins, balancing fluids, and maintaining essential functions without much recognition. But when these vital organs begin to fail, dialysis steps in as a powerful life-sustaining intervention. Dialysis services are not just medical treatments—they are a structured system of care, precision, and resilience that gives people with kidney failure a renewed shot at life.

At its heart, dialysis replicates the kidney's role in filtering blood, removing waste, and regulating electrolytes. It’s a routine lifeline for millions around the globe, delivering critical support through both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis methods. These services demand precision, compassion, and continuous monitoring, all orchestrated to help patients maintain their health, energy, and quality of life.

Understanding the Essentials of Dialysis Care

Dialysis isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. For every individual, the choice between in-center hemodialysis, home hemodialysis, or peritoneal dialysis depends on medical needs, lifestyle, support systems, and personal comfort. In a clinical setting, hemodialysis uses machines to cleanse the blood through a specialized filter, typically requiring three sessions a week. On the other hand, peritoneal dialysis involves the abdomen’s lining as a natural filter, offering greater flexibility for patients to manage their treatment at home.

Each method involves a high degree of coordination—between nephrologists, dialysis nurses, dietitians, and the patient themselves. The journey requires trust, education, and a personalized plan to ensure effectiveness and minimize risks. It is this collaborative nature that defines successful dialysis services.

Regional Innovations and Global Best Practices

Around the world, dialysis services are shaped by regional needs, healthcare systems, and technological advancements. In Europe, for instance, many countries focus heavily on home-based therapies, while in parts of Asia, mobile dialysis units are emerging to reach underserved populations. These regional variations reflect not only logistical necessities but also cultural approaches to healthcare.

What remains universal, however, is the emphasis on patient-centric care. From appointment flexibility to dietary counseling and mental health support, modern dialysis services are shifting from merely clinical to holistically supportive.

United States Dialysis Services: A Model of Scale and Specialization

In the United States, dialysis services operate on a large, highly specialized scale. With one of the highest rates of end-stage renal disease globally, the U.S. has developed an extensive dialysis infrastructure supported by major providers, community clinics, and home-based care programs. What sets the country apart is its emphasis on customization—tailored schedules, advanced technology, and integrated care management ensure that patients receive consistent and responsive support.

The U.S. also leads in offering in-depth patient education, allowing individuals to understand their condition and treatment thoroughly. This empowers them to participate actively in their care journey, which is essential for improving long-term outcomes and reducing hospitalizations. Moreover, telehealth and remote monitoring tools are increasingly being integrated into care plans, enhancing the convenience and continuity of dialysis support for rural and remote populations.

Expert Market Research Insight: Evolution of Dialysis Services

According to Expert Market Research, the continuous growth and sophistication of United States Dialysis Services reflect a global trend toward more accessible, efficient, and patient-friendly renal care. The integration of smart dialysis machines, AI-driven monitoring, and expanded home dialysis options are not just innovations—they’re necessary responses to rising chronic kidney disease cases and patient lifestyle preferences.

These developments also point to a broader shift: dialysis is no longer seen as a purely hospital-based treatment but a flexible, integrated part of daily living. This evolution has set benchmarks that influence global care models, helping healthcare providers worldwide enhance patient satisfaction and improve clinical outcomes.

The Emotional and Physical Rhythm of Dialysis

Living with dialysis is more than managing a medical condition—it’s about adapting to a new rhythm of life. The physical impact of each session, the dietary restrictions, and the emotional toll can be significant. However, with the right support system, patients can lead full, active lives.

Dialysis services today are increasingly acknowledging the emotional and psychological aspects of treatment. Patient advocacy groups, peer mentoring, and mental health counseling are being folded into care protocols to ensure that support extends beyond machines and lab results.

Moreover, staff training now focuses equally on empathy and expertise. A compassionate nurse, an attentive dietitian, or a motivational counselor can make all the difference in a patient's treatment journey.

Bridging the Gap: Access, Affordability, and Awareness

Despite advancements, challenges remain in many parts of the world. From limited access in rural areas to affordability barriers in low-income regions, not everyone receives the dialysis care they need. Bridging these gaps requires not only medical infrastructure but also public awareness campaigns, government policies, and inclusive insurance coverage.

Additionally, early detection of kidney disease through regular screening can dramatically reduce the burden of dialysis dependency. As prevention and education efforts expand, the focus is gradually shifting toward preserving kidney function before the need for dialysis even arises.

Is kidney care entering a new era with at-home treatment breakthroughs

Why are more patients choosing dialysis from the comfort of their homes Chronic kidney disease affects millions globally, with dialysis being a life-sustaining but time-consuming treatment. Traditionally performed in clinical settings, dialysis often requires long hours, multiple visits a week, and significant lifestyle adjustments. However, the growing Home Dialysis System Market is reshaping this experience—bringing care to the patient’s doorstep and giving them back control of their time, health, and comfort.

How do home dialysis systems actually work Home dialysis comes in two main forms: peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis. These systems are designed to be compact, user-friendly, and automated, allowing patients to perform treatments overnight or while resting. Most systems include touchscreen interfaces, alert systems, and remote monitoring features, making them easy for patients and caregivers to manage without medical training.
