What is Home Hemodialysis?
Home hemodialysis (HHD) is a therapy for kidney failure. The procedure is the same as for outpatient hemodialysis, but is performed in the comfort of the patient’s own home using the same equipment.
Patients dialyzing at home no longer need to travel to a dialysis clinic for dialysis treatment.
However, the treating nephrologist is still responsible for treatment and prescribing therapy and medications. The HHD machine is set up and installed at home in a suitable room.
Regular maintenance of the equipment is performed at home and treatment materials are delivered to the patient’s home.
Patients are trained by D.med therapy specialists to perform the treatment on their own. After completing the training program, patients have the flexibility to perform dialysis on their own schedule (e.g., in the evening after work). If questions or problems arise during treatment, D.med’s therapy specialists are available around the clock to provide support as needed.

What our patients and employees say about HHD
“I now lead an almost normal life again. I don’t have to travel long distances to the dialysis station and I no longer have to stay in the dialysis unit. It’s also a great relief for the family.”
Mr. B.
Patient
“I can now manage my daily routine much better. My daughters are just at a stage in their lives where, as a mother, you have to be on hand with advice and support. Family life has adapted well to HHD. When I dialyze in the evening, we can watch TV together or play games. I’m glad that the HHD exists, it gives back freedom and you don’t feel sick anymore like in the hospital.”
Ms. T.
