Verified step by step guidance

Understand the two main types of dialysis: Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis. Hemodialysis involves filtering blood through a machine outside the body, while Peritoneal Dialysis uses the lining of the abdomen to filter blood inside the body.

Identify the key characteristic of Hemodialysis: it requires an external machine to filter the blood, which means the process occurs outside the patient's body.

Recognize that Peritoneal Dialysis, including its variations like Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) and Automated Peritoneal Dialysis (APD), occurs inside the body using the peritoneal cavity.

Differentiate between the terms: Hemodialysis is external, while Peritoneal Dialysis and its types are internal processes.

Conclude that the type of dialysis occurring outside the patient's body is Hemodialysis, as it involves an external machine to perform the blood filtration.
