1. What do you mean by the water is clean?

The most important thing about dialytic treatment is water.
Our blood comes in contact with about 120 liters of dialysis fluid through the dialyzing membrane during one dialysis cycle. We have come to understand that a long term dialysis is the activity of impurities called endotoxin in dialysis fluid which causes arteriosclerosis, dialysis amyloidosis, (the cause of a bone cyst / carpal canal syndrome / jerk finger) and nutritional insufficiency.
Our hospital will thoroughly cleanse the contaminated water, (complete purification of dialysis fluid), by keeping the endotoxin under the detection of sensitivity and providing our patients with new equipment to eliminate these harmful diseases related to long term dialysis. We operate with complete control of maintenance.

2. What is a Non-Acetate Dialysis？

In order to fix the situation regarding the blood that is inclined towards acidity for patients who are receiving treatment with conventional dialysis fluid, a small amount of acetic acid is contained. However, side effects such as depression of cardiac function, peripheral vasodilator action and reduction in blood pressure have been reported.
Our hospital uses the new bicarbonate dialysis fluid, also known as Non-Acetate Carbostar. As a result, the following symptoms have been alleviated during the process of dialysis; reduction in blood pressure, headache, nausea, leg cramp, fatigue and sense of itchiness. Shortening the time to get out of bed during the period of post-dialysis, alleviated sensation of fatigue after coming home from a dialysis treatment, appetite improvement and correction of anemia have also shown positive effects.

3. Treatment by medical specialists and skilled staffs.

We give team treatment by medical specialists on dialysis / kidney and skilled nurse and clinical engineers.

4. Nighttime dialysis

Nighttime dialysis is available on Mon / Wed / Fri by the needs from the community with many workers.

５.Cooperation with general hospitals in the community.

We work hard on cooperating with doctors at the basic hospitals on a daily basis so that patients do not worry when something happens.。
