At the Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis Unit at Hospital Angeles Clínica Londres these essential treatments for patients with chronic kidney disease, as they help filter and remove toxins and waste from the body.

Hemodialysis is a procedure in which a machine is used to filter the blood and remove waste products. During a hemodialysis session, blood is drawn from the patient through a catheter or an arteriovenous fistula, filtered in the machine, and then returned to the body. This process is performed several times a week and requires supervision by specialized medical staff.

On the other hand, peritoneal dialysis is a treatment performed at home. It involves introducing a special fluid into the patient’s abdomen through a catheter. This fluid absorbs waste and toxins through the peritoneal membrane and is then drained. Peritoneal dialysis offers greater flexibility and convenience for patients, as they can perform the treatment at home.

At Hospital Angeles Clínica Londres, we have a highly trained medical team and state-of-the-art technology to provide quality hemodialysis services. Our goal is to improve our patients’ quality of life by providing the best possible care.
