If you have been recommended by your doctor to undergo kidney dialysis, you must practice the following steps before the procedure:Diet Restrictions: Haemodialysis: In the case of Haemodialysis, the number of fluids the patient can drink will be severely restricted. This is because the machine won't be able to remove the 2 to 3 days worth of excess fluids from blood in 4 hours. If not adhered to, this may lead to serious complications like building up of fluids in blood, tissues, and lungs. A patient needs to be careful about what he/she eats because too much of minerals like potassium, sodium, and phosphorus as these can build up to dangerous levels in between treatment sessions. Peritoneal dialysis: In the case of peritoneal dialysis, fewer restrictions on diet and fluid intake are imposed as compared to haemodialysis because the treatment is carried out more often. But sometimes, it may be advised to limit how much fluid the patient can drink, and he/she may need to make some changes to dietary habits. A dietitian may discuss the details with the patient. Medical Information: The patient must inform the doctor about the medications they take to safeguard themselves from any adverse complications.Allergies: If the patient is allergic to any specific medicine, he/she should inform the medical experts.Past experience: If the patient has faced some difficulties regarding kidney dialysis in the past, they should mention it to the doctor. This is important to avoid further complications.Pregnancy: Women of childbearing age on dialysis cannot get pregnant because having kidney disease can decrease the ability to produce healthy eggs that can be fertilized It is better for the patient to consult with the doctor before she decides to try for a baby.
