thanks 4 the video but i will like to noe how many types of dialysis there are 4 kidney disease?

[RenalInfo]

There are two types of dialysis for kidney disease - peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis. Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) is performed at home. PD cleans your blood and removes extra fluids using one of your body's own natural filters, the peritoneal membrane. Hemodialysis (HD) can either be performed at home (called Home Hemodialysis (HHD)) or in a clinic. HD and HHD remove waste and excess fluid outside your body. Blood is removed from your body and pumped by a machine through a dialyzer.
