Dialysis Services

Dialysis at Mar Sleeva Medicity Palai in Kottayam, Kerala is built to intensive care standards and delivered round the clock, with treatment available across the hospital's intensive care units. This allows critically ill patients to receive dialysis safely at the bedside, without being transferred from the ICU.

Our dialysis services include maintenance haemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), and sustained low efficiency dialysis (SLED), with treatment tailored to each patient's clinical condition and level of renal support required.

Dialysis services we offer

Maintenance Haemodialysis
Regular haemodialysis for patients with end stage kidney disease. Fistula function and fluid status are checked using POCUS, allowing early intervention and better control of a patient's volume between sessions.
Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD)
A home based dialysis option that uses the lining of the abdomen to filter blood, giving suitable patients independence from frequent hospital visits.
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)
Slow, continuous dialysis for critically ill patients whose blood pressure cannot tolerate standard haemodialysis, delivered in the intensive care unit.
Sustained Low-Efficiency Dialysis (SLED)
A gentler, extended form of dialysis for unstable patients, bridging the gap between CRRT and conventional haemodialysis.

Frequently asked Questions

Fistula function and fluid status are assessed using POCUS, which allows early intervention, better control of a patient's volume, and safer dialysis sessions.

Yes. For critically ill patients whose blood pressure cannot tolerate standard dialysis, CRRT and SLED provide slow, gentle dialysis at the bedside.

Haemodialysis filters blood through a machine at the centre, while peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) uses the lining of the abdomen and can be done at home. The right choice depends on the patient's health, lifestyle, and preference.
