2. ICU Bedside Dialysis Services

ICU Bedside Dialysis is a service provided in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for patients with kidney failure who require dialysis while remaining in the ICU for critical care.

Patients may need bedside dialysis if they have acute kidney injury or chronic kidney disease that requires dialysis while they are critically ill or unstable.

Bedside dialysis is performed using specialized equipment and techniques to remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood while the patient remains in the ICU.

Bedside dialysis allows for continuous monitoring and treatment of critically ill patients without needing to transport them to a separate dialysis unit, which can be safer and more convenient.

Risks include infection, bleeding, and complications related to the dialysis procedure. The ICU team closely monitors patients to manage and minimize these risks.

3. DENGUE NS1 ANTIGEN

Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral infection causing flu-like symptoms, and in severe cases, it can lead to dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome.

Anyone experiencing symptoms of dengue fever, particularly within the first few days of illness, should consider this test for early diagnosis.

Yes, the Dengue NS1 Antigen Test is highly accurate in detecting early dengue infection, especially within the first five days of symptom onset.

The test involves a blood draw, which is then analyzed in a laboratory to detect the NS1 antigen.

A positive result indicates a dengue infection. Your healthcare provider will discuss treatment options and may recommend further testing or monitoring.
