A clear, jargon-free definition, verified by the medical team at Clinique ESSAADA.
A treatment option in which the patient carries out their own dialysis at home, after supervised training. It offers great independence, better respect for personal routines, and regular but less frequent medical follow-up. It mainly concerns peritoneal dialysis, and more rarely home haemodialysis. It requires a suitable environment and a relative available to provide support.
