Albumin is the most common protein found in the blood. It provides the body with the protein needed to both maintain growth and repair tissues. During a dialysis treatment, the albumin in your blood also helps with fluid removal.
Serum albumin, the albumin measured from your blood, has long been used as a market of nutritional status in all patients regardless of kidney function. Albumin is a protein which your body uses as a carrier for other substances such as electrolytes, hormones, and fatty acids. Albumin is also the main contributor to oncotic pressure, which means that it helps keep fluid in your blood vessel rather than allow it to leak into your tissues which causes swelling or edema.
