hemodyalisis on line

INTRODUCTION: Periodic QA measurement is the preferred way for VA surveillance in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients (pts). OBJECTIVE: The aims of this study were to measure QA by TDT and to compare the functional results with Delta-H method. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We measured Q(A) non invasively in 38 VA (mean VA duration: 48.7 +/- 69.8 months) during HD in 38 stable ESRD (mean age 63.8 +/- 15.1 yr, mean time on HD 47.6 +/- 53.9 months, diabetic nephropathy 18...

The uremic toxin removal capacity mainly depends on dialyzer and hemodialysis modes. The low-flux hemodialysis only removes solutes having molecular weights less than 5.000 Da. High-flux hemodyalisis represents a form of low-volume hemodiafiltration because of the internal filtration and back-filtration that can take place within a dialyzer. Hemodiafiltration with large volumes of replacement fluid seems to be the best technique for removing all small, medium-sized and large molecules. The objective of our study was to evaluate the large molecules removal bigger than beta2-microglobuline on high flux haemodialysis and on-line hemodiafiltration with postdilutional infusion, in patients with three times a week dialysis and on short daily dialysis...
