Nocturnal dialysis is a longer, slower form of hemodialysis that takes place at night. Patients sleep in the unit while they are attached to the dialysis machine. Nurses are present throughout the night and monitor patients over the course of their treatment.
Nocturnal dialysis requires three treatments per week. Each visit is 6-8 hours on average between 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Please speak to your nephrologist and dialysis team to see if this is the right treatment for you.
