Dialysis technology involves removing waste products and excess fluids from the blood in patients with kidney failure. This book explains the operation of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis systems, vascular access care, dialyzer reprocessing, and water treatment protocols. It discusses troubleshooting techniques, safety measures, and infection control in dialysis units. Advanced monitoring and patient care strategies are also covered. Practical illustrations and step-by-step procedures prepare learners for real-world dialysis settings. It is essential for dialysis technicians and nephrology care professionals.
