Blood filtering technology

Blood filtering technology, such as in dialysis, removes waste, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys cannot perform these functions effectively. A machine acts as an artificial kidney, drawing blood from the body, filtering it through specialized membranes to trap impurities, and then returning the cleaned blood back into the bloodstream. This process helps maintain proper chemical balance and fluid levels, supporting overall health in individuals with kidney failure. Advances include portable and more efficient filters, improving treatment outcomes and quality of life for patients.
