What is Dialysis? The kidneys filter your blood by filtering waste and extra fluid from the body. This waste is sent to the bladder and eliminated when urinate. Dialysis performs the function of kidneys when they failed. End-stage kidney failure occurs when kidneys perform only 10 to 15 present of their regular function. Dialysis is a treatment in which blood is filtered and purified by using a machine. This helps keep your fluids in balance.

Why is dialysis used? Properly functioning kidneys filter extra water, waste, and impurities from the body. They help to control blood pressure and balance levels of chemical elements in the blood. These elements include potassium  sodium and phosphors  When your kidneys can’t perform their function due to disease, dialysis helps to regulate body functions to be as normal as possible. Without dialysis salt and waste products will gather in blood, this can damage other organs. However, dialysis does not cure kidney disease.

What are the different types of dialysis? Haemodialysis 

This the most common type of dialysis. This process uses an artificial kidney to filter waste and extra fluid from the blood. The blood is removed from the body and filtered by the artificial kidney. The filtered blood again returned to the body with the help of a dialysis machine.

Peritoneal dialysis

This process involves surgery to implant peritoneal dialysis catheter into your abdomen. The catheter helps in the filtration of blood through the peritoneum, which is a membrane in the abdomen. During treatment, a fluid called dialysate flows into the peritoneum. The dialysate absorbs waste. Once the dialysate takes waste out of the blood, it’s drained from your abdomen.

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT)

This therapy is used when the patient is suffering from acute kidney failure. It’s also known as hemofiltration. A machine passes the blood through the tube, a filter removes waste and water and the blood is returned to the body, along with replacement fluid. This procedure is performed 12 to 24 hours.

The bladder is the organ in the body that holds urine. Every year, approximately 45,000 men and 17,000 women are diagnosed with the disease bladder cancers.

Stages of bladder cancer Stage 0 bladder cancer hasn’t spread past the mucosal lining of the bladder.

Stage 1 bladder cancer spread past the lining of the bladder, but it hasn’t reached a layer of muscle in the bladder.

Stage 2 bladder cancer spread to the muscle in the bladder.

Stage 3 cancer spread into the tissues that surround the bladder.

Stage 4 bladder cancer spread past the bladder to the neighbouring organs of the body.

Cystoscopy: inserting a narrow tube that has a small camera on it, through your urethra to see inside your bladder·        

Biopsy: Remove a sample of tissue and tested to look for signs of cancer.·

Who requires Kidney Transplantation?

Kidney Transplantation is a procedure where one kidney is removed from a person and implanted into another person with permanent Kidney Failure. The person who donates a Kidney is known as a Donor and the one who receives the kidneys is known as the recipient.

Do all patients with Kidney Failure require Kidney Transplantation?

Emergency Nephrology Services

Nephrology is a specialty which deals with kidney disorders such as kidney failure, kidney transplantation, Nephrotic Syndrome, electrolyte disorders and other allied issues related to kidney functioning. All modalities of renal replacement therapy such as Dialysis, CRRT and Renal Transplantation are dealt by Nephrologists.

Nephrology Department at AINU, Visakhapatnam is dedicated to provide quality services with advanced facilities and with empathy. The dialysis unit at AINU is a State of the art dialysis centre and is equipped with all advanced dialysis facilities including HDF.

Urology, a branch of medicine, also known as genitourinary surgery focuses on the medical and surgical diseases of the urinary tract system. The kidneys, adrenal glands, ureters, urinary bladder, female and the male reproductive organs, viz testes, epididymis, prostate and the penis, come under the branch of Urology. The urinary and the reproductive tracts are linked to each other, thus disorder in one effect the other organ. Urology combines the management of non-surgical conditions, such as urinary tract infections and benign prostatic hyperplasia, with the management of surgical conditions like bladder or prostate cancer, kidney stones, congenital abnormalities, traumatic injury, and stress incontinence.

We at AINU Visakhapatnam aim to give holistic care to patients. We have regular training programmers to our nursing staff, administrative staff, housekeeping and security so as to make patients visit to hospital comfortable. We promote team concept and entire team works like a family and work with patient centric approach.

Hematuria:

This is mainly due to the presence of blood cells in the urine tract. In most cases it is benign. In other cases, it might be due to strenuous workouts, kidney disorder, medications in cancer patients, Alport syndrome (an of cancer disease in glomeruli) or an enlarged prostate. If at any time you see blood in urine immediately see a doctor. Prevention is always better than cure!!

This also commonly called Glomerulonephritis. Tiny filters called glomeruli in the kidneys, remove electrolytes, toxins, and waste from the blood and excrete them through urine. It might be a sudden attack of inflammation or chronic which comes on gradually. If this occurs on its own it is primary glomerulonephritis or secondary glomerulonephritis when occurred with either diabetes or lupus.

The common symptoms are:

Pink or cola-colored urine due to the presence of blood in the stream.

Anemia or kidney failure.

Swelling in face, feet, hands, and abdomen.

As a result of diabetes, a person’s small blood vessels are injured. The glomeruli, filters of the kidneys are damaged. Due to this high volume proteins are released into the urine. The body will retain more amount of water and salt than normally required. It is commonly called as Diabetic Nephropathy. Raised levels of albumin in the urine are the first sign. Albumin is the main protein that leaks out of a damaged kidney. The disease is divided into:

Microalbuminuria, here the albumin leak is about 30 to 300 mg per day. This is sometimes called as incipient nephropathy.

Proteinuria, here the albumin leak is more than 300 mg per day. It is also called as macroalbuminuria or overt nephropathy.

Symptoms are:

Dry, itchy skin.

Cramps in the muscles and puffiness around the eyes.

Needing to pass urine more often than normal.

Weight loss.

Anemia in kidney occurs when the levels of EPO (erythropoietin), a hormone produced by healthy kidneys, drops. EPO indicates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells, which carry oxygen to the body through the blood. The common symptoms are:

You look pale.

You feel tired.

You have a poor appetite and less sleep.

Not enough energy for your daily chores.

Faster heartbeat.

You are short of breath or depressed.
