The type of dialysis that allows the patient to be ambulatory is the CAPD (continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis). CAPD is a type of peritoneal dialysis that cleans the body, helps control the water and replaces ,the work of the diseased kidneys. It is the most portable type of dialysis and uses the manual bags containing the peritoneal dialysis fluid.

The answer is CAPD or Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis. This is a type of dialysis that is less effective than hemodialysis, though this kind can allow the patient to be ambulatory, to manage his own dialysis the patient can even go on travel and vacation anywhere as long she/he had the solution.
