What is hemodialysis?
As certain diseases progress, irreversible changes occur in the kidneys, and they are no longer able to fully perform their role of filtering and eliminating various waste products from the body. Hemodialysis is a treatment method that largely replaces kidney function and helps sustain human life. During the procedure, part of the patient's blood is drawn out of the body, filtered of toxins and other unwanted substances in a complex filter called a dialyzer, and then returned to the patient. The procedure is usually carried out three or four times a week at the dialysis center. Within the city of Varna, transportation is provided for each session, from the patient's home to the center and back.
