No, the test is non-invasive and painless. It simply involves collecting a urine sample.

The frequency depends on your health status and risk factors. Your healthcare provider will recommend how often you should be tested based on your individual needs.

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.

Benefits include smaller incisions, less pain, reduced scarring, shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery.
