Haemodialysis.

1. Many factors like injury, infections or restricted blood flow to kidneys reduce the activity of kidneys.
2. This leads to accumulation of poisonous wastes in the body which may lead to death.
3. In case of kidney failure, an artificial device is used to remove the nitrogenous waste products from the blood. This process is called haemodialysis.
4. At one time 500 ml of blood is passed through the dialyzing machine. The purified blood is pumped back into the body of the patient.
