Difference between Dialysis and Intravenous therapy

Dialysis vs. Intravenous therapy

In medicine, dialysis (from Greek διάλυσις, diàlysis, "dissolution"; from διά, dià, "through", and λύσις, lỳsis, "loosening or splitting") is the process of removing excess water, solutes and toxins from the blood in those whose native kidneys have lost the ability to perform these functions in a natural way. Intravenous therapy (IV) is a therapy that delivers liquid substances directly into a vein (intra- + ven- + -ous).

Similarities between Dialysis and Intravenous therapy

Dialysis and Intravenous therapy have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acidosis, Blood, Buffer solution, Dialysis, Electrolyte, Solution.

Acidosis

Acidosis is a process causing increased acidity in the blood and other body tissues (i.e., an increased hydrogen ion concentration).

Blood

Blood is a body fluid in humans and other animals that delivers necessary substances such as nutrients and oxygen to the cells and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells.
