00:01 In this question, we are given a patient who has diabetic nephropathy.

00:06 Diabetic nephropathy is a severe condition of diabetes in which her kidneys are damaged.

00:13 Kidneys are damaged.

00:16 So, for proper filtering of blood, she has to undergo hemodialysis.

00:22 Hemodialysis is basically artificial filtration of blood.

00:26 So here we have to explain the dangers of hemodialysis.

00:31 That long term hemodialysis can be dangerous.

00:34 So these are the dangers.

00:36 Firstly hemodialysis can lead to electrolyte imbalance.

00:41 Electrolyte imbalance means there can be a imbalance of the various ions in our body.

00:47 Like sodium ion, potassium ion or calcium ion.

00:52 Their concentration can be imbalanced.

00:55 Because a lot of fluid is immediately drained out of the body.

01:01 Lot of fluid is drained out during hemodialysis because of which can cause electrolyte imbalance.

01:10 And due to electrolyte imbalance, there can be muscle weakness.

01:15 There can be muscle weakness and also there can be certain heart problems.

01:22 Heart problems.

01:24 Then the second danger of hemodialysis would be hypotension.

01:30 Hypotension means decrease in bp or low blood pressure...
