Dialysis: Most people with esrd will need to have dialysis, but if your esrd is not quite to that degree, your doctor will have you follow a special diet, make sure your blood pressure stays low, and have you take medicines that help the kidney to function. There are 2 types of dialysis, peritoneal and hemodialysis. Peritoneal is done at home while you sleep, and hemodialysis is done at a center.

Dialysis: In most cases, when pt's have reached the end stage of renal disease it means that their kidneys are no longer working at all. And if that is so, then one would usually require 3 times a week dialysis at least to treat buildup of renal waste products in the blood.

Txp, dialysis, death: End-stage renal disease is defined as insufficient kidney function to support life. The time frame within which life will end varies depending on how the patient restricts intake of fluids + products (like potassium) that are managed by the kidneys. If no treatment is provided (or accepted by the patient), death will eventually occur. The only 2 treatment options are dialysis or transplantation.
