Explain the temporary and permanent methods to be adopted for kidney failure (ESRD) persons.

Open in App
Solution

The temporary method to be adapted for kidney failure is dialysis. Hemodialysis removes wastes and water by circulating blood outside the body through an external filter, called a dialyzer, that contains a semipermeable membrane. The permanent method is kidney transplantation. In this method, the kidney is transplanted from donor to the recipient.
