Depends. If you do it at home 2.5-3 hours. But if you go to a clinic it is 4 hours or more
Total 9-12 hours per week. Three days a week, 3-4 hours each.
Hemodialysis takes 3 to 4 hours and 3 times per week. Peritoneal dialysis is done every night while the patient is sleeping, usually 4 to 5 cycles per night.
Three to four hours, usually 3 times per week if doing hemodialysis. If doing peritoneal dialysis, it is daily overnight.
