Peritoneal Dialysis Center In Chhattisgarh
As an experienced peritoneal dialysis center in Chhattisgarh, we provide peritoneal dialysis removal and care treatment, including peritoneal dialysis removal when needed. Peritoneal dialysis, also known as PD, uses the lining of the abdomen, or peritoneum, to filter blood the way healthy kidneys would.
It involves filling your abdomen with a dialysis solution called dialysate, which absorbs waste and excess fluid from blood vessels. The dialysate fluid drains from the abdomen, removing wastes from the body.
There are a few types of peritoneal dialysis:
-
C.A.P.D. Catheter Removal When Needed
One common type of peritoneal dialysis is Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (C.A.P.D.). This requires an implanted catheter in the peritoneum to allow fluid to flow in and out. Our skilled Chhattisgarh staff can provide C.A.P.D. catheter removal when necessary or no longer functioning properly. -

At Sunshine Hospital, Chhattisgarh, patients can choose from automated peritoneal dialysis (A.P.D.) or continuous cycler-assisted peritoneal dialysis (C.C.P.D.). Our knowledgeable team provides complete peritoneal dialysis removal care customized to your unique needs.

Some potential F.A.Q.s
What are the steps involved in starting peritoneal dialysis?
A PD catheter is surgically inserted into your abdomen, and then after about 2 weeks of healing, dialysis solution exchanges are started to filter wastes and excess fluid from your blood.
How often does the peritoneal dialysis fluid need to be exchanged?
P.D. fluid exchanges typically occur 4-6 times daily, with several hours between each exchange to allow proper waste filtration.
Does P.D. or C.A.P.D. treatment allow traveling or continuing to work?
P.D. and C.A.P.D. allow for more freedom since exchanges occur at home without visiting a dialysis center. Many patients can travel and continue working.
What causes a peritoneal catheter to be removed?
A catheter may be removed due to infection not resolved by antibiotics, catheter malfunction, hernias, or if high transport status indicates another form of dialysis is preferred.
Is peritoneal dialysis painful?
Most patients do not find P.D. exchanges painful. There may be mild discomfort when fluid is drained or infused. Notify your care team if you experience significant pain.
