If the kidneys become
diseased and stop working, it is necessary to use a kidney machine to remove
waste from the blood. This machine process is called dialysis. It involves
pumping blood from a tube in the person’s arm into thin tubing that runs through
a tank of sterile liquid. Waste passes from the blood through the walls of the
tubing, and the cleaned blood is returned to the blood. This process must be
carried out regularly if it is to be successful.
FACT The
adrenal glands are attached to the kidneys. They help create energy which
stimulates the body to prepare it for instant action. Any extreme sport or
violent activity, such as playing skateboard, causes a sudden rush of
adrenalin.
