Hemodialysis is a type of dialysis that uses a machine to filter and clean a patient's blood. It is used to treat kidney failure, when the kidneys are no longer able to filter waste from the blood. During hemodialysis, a patient's blood is pumped through a dialyzer, which is a device that contains a semipermeable membrane. The membrane filters out waste products and excess fluid from the blood, which is then returned to the patient's body. Hemodialysis is typically performed three times a week, for three to four hours each session. The hemodialysis market is a subset of the dialysis market, which is estimated to be worth billions of dollars. The hemodialysis market is expected to grow due to the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney diseases, as well as the growing demand for dialysis treatments. Some companies in the hemodialysis market include Fresenius Medical Care, Baxter International, Nipro Corporation, B. Braun Melsungen AG, and DaVita Inc. Show Less Read more
