What is Dialysis Tubing?

Answer 1

It would help if you clarified your question but what came to my mind was the tubing used for peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis is a type of dialysis that uses the peritoneum as the semipermeable membrane. The peritoneum is the membrane that surrounds the human gut – stomach, intestines, liver, etc – dialysis is accomplished by filling the space around those organs with dialysate so that waste solutes can dialyze from the blood into the dialysate.

In order to fill and empty the dialysate from the gut you need to have a tube placed by a surgeon – a peritoneal catheter. From the outside that peritoneal catheter looks like a plastic tube sticking out of the belly, its purpose is to allow dialysis.

Answer 3

With dialysis you create a blood loop by sticking two needles in the patient (or use two central catheter lumen). The blood goes out of the patient through one needle, THROUGH A SERIES OF TUBING, through the dialyzer (artificial kidney filter), and then through MORE TUBING, and back through the second needle to complete the loop.

Ok, its for people with kidney failure to hook them up to dialysis machines which filter blood for impurities. That's pretty generic, but its correct.
