If you or a loved one are facing the challenges of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and the loss of kidney function, you're in the right place. At Diaverum, we're dedicated to providing True care that empowers individuals to lead fulfilling lives, no matter their kidney health journey.
🌍 Understanding CKD and Dialysis:
When CKD progresses and kidney function declines, waiting for a kidney transplant becomes a reality for many. But what if a transplant isn't possible or you have a long time to wait? This is where dialysis steps in, offering a lifeline that helps maintain your quality of life. Dialysis serves as vital support when your kidneys can't do their job.
⚙️ Two Types of Dialysis: Peritoneal and Haemodialysis:
There are two main types of dialysis: peritoneal dialysis and haemodialysis. Peritoneal dialysis involves self-treatment at home, usually overnight or through 3-5 shorter sessions every day (usually around 8-10 hours in total). For haemodialysis, on the other hand, you will need to travel to and from a clinic for your treatment, about 3-4 times per week. However, this does mean you will have treatment-free days.
There are pros and cons to both types and different impacts on daily life so understanding these differences can help you make an informed choice tailored to your needs.
🏡 The Freedom of Home Dialysis:
Home dialysis is a flexible option that can significantly enhance your quality of life. With the ability to fit around your social, work, and family commitments, home dialysis offers the comfort of familiar surroundings while receiving the care you need.
