Home Hemodialysis
Now Home Dialysis in Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Guwahati
What is Home Hemodialysis?
As the name suggests, it means undergoing a dialysis procedure at home, instead of a clinic or hospital.
This will be accomplished by the team of Apollo Dialysis Clinics installing a dedicated dialysis machine at the person’s residence, in a separate room. The machine will be solely for that person, and not be used by anyone else.
HHD is the preferred practice in western countries, New Zealand and Australia, as it offers multiple benefits. Most patients are able to perform the procedure for themselves, after a simple training.
