Blood Cleaning

a: Dialysis ~
b: an artificial kidney

What: "When a patient's kidney fails, the body cannot remove impurities or regulate fluids and chemicals in the blood. Dialysis is like an artificial kidney, performing the work the kidney used to do. But to optimize dialysis, access to your bloodstream needs to be created to allow continuous and high volumes of blood to circulate through the dialysis machine."
