"We are hearing from increasing numbers of dialysis patients that they are having to choose between dialysing and putting food on the table," says policy director Fiona Loud.

Many patients are given machines that allow them to dialyse more efficiently from the comfort of their homes.

"At least with kidneys, we can dialyse patients for a while so there would be time to grow kidneys if that becomes possible."

Dr Jan Dudley, consultant paediatric nephrologist at Bristol Royal Infirmary, said she welcomed any equipment more suited to treating newborns, but she said it was "not impossible" to dialyse small babies with the current machines,

This removed the necessity of dialysing, and helped to lessen the evils of decomposition and “frilling.”
