The 23 pages that link to Hemodialysis, each with the reason it gives.

• HyperkalemiaRelated: Dialysis can remove potassium when kidney function is severely impaired or other measures fail.

• KidneyRelated: It can replace some kidney functions when renal failure is advanced.

• Ethylene glycolRelated: It can remove ethylene glycol and metabolites while correcting severe metabolic derangements.

• Circulatory systemRelated: It substitutes for part of the kidneys' waste-removal role from circulating blood.

• ChloramineRelated: Dialysis water must be treated to remove chloramine, which can damage red blood cells.

• FomepizoleRelated: Severe poisoning may require dialysis alongside fomepizole to remove toxins and metabolites.

• HyperammonemiaRelated: It can rapidly clear ammonia when concentrations are critically high.

• Maple syrup urine diseaseRelated: During severe crises it can rapidly lower toxic amino-acid concentrations.

• Kidney failureRelated: It replaces part of the kidneys’ filtering work when function is severely reduced.

• Artificial organRelated: It substitutes for some kidney functions when the kidneys cannot filter blood adequately.

• Potassium acetateRelated: Potassium acetate has been used as a source of base in dialysis solutions.

• Spanish methanol poisoning outbreakRelated: Dialysis can remove methanol and formate while correcting severe acidosis.

• Surgically created structuresRelated: A mature vascular access structure makes repeated hemodialysis possible.
