The volume of body fluid cannot be controlled by dialysis. Instead, ultra-filtration across the membrane is employed. For this, a positive pressure is applied to the blood compartment or a negative pressure established in the dialysate compartment. Either way, fluid—both water and electrolytes—will move from the blood compartment to the dialysate, which is subsequently discarded.
