Dialysis is a kidney treatment that employs an artificial process of eliminating waste and unwanted water from the blood. The exchange occurs across a semi-permeable membrane. When the blood is drawn, passed through a membrane and returned to the patient, it is called haemodialysis. When the body peritoneal membrane or lining of the abdomen is used for the exchange with a chemical solution, it is called peritoneal dialysis. Haemodialysis is considered more effective than peritoneal dialysis in removing fluid and substances with small molecular weight.
