A Brief History of Daily Hemodialysis

Home Hemodialysis International, 1998
Daily hemodialysis has been in uninterrupted practice since its introduction in California in 1967. Early trials were stopped for technical, logistical, and economical problems, but a rapidly increasing number of centers now perform it on close to 200 patients, either as long nightly or short daytime hemodialysis.Increasing the frequency of dialysis ...

Daily Home Hemodialysis: A Hybrid of Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis

Advances in Renal Replacement Therapy, 1996
Despite that routine home hemodialysis, performed with thrice weekly frequency, had provided the best clinical results of any dialysis modality, it has been losing competition to center hemodialysis and home peritoneal dialysis. The main reason for this paradox is a lack of suitable equipment for home hemodialysis.

Daily Hemodialysis: A Dialysis Provider Perspective

Advances in Renal Replacement Therapy, 2001
Regardless of size, ownership or corporate structure, the goal of the dialysis provider is to deliver the best renal substitution therapy in the safest and most convenient manner, at a cost commensurate with reimbursement. This paper reviews the available data on daily hemodialysis, focusing on its ability to satisfy this goal. In addition, it examines

[Daily nutrient intake in hemodialysis].

Giornale italiano di nefrologia : organo ufficiale della Societa italiana di nefrologia, 2003
Although there is a higher nutrient requirement, food intake in haemodialysis patients is often inadequate. Protein nitrogen appearance (PNA) indirectly estimates the mean protein intake during the short interdialysis period, but it does not measure the daily nutrient intake, which is generally unknown.

Remote Monitoring of Daily Nocturnal Hemodialysis

Hemodialysis International, 2001
Daily nocturnal hemodialysis (DNHD) is a new variant of home hemodialysis that allows patients to dialyze at home, at night, while they sleep, providing longer duration and greater frequency of treatments. This paper describes a 3‐year experience with remote monitoring of DNHD patients over the Internet, and we review the remote monitoring experience ...

Technical Considerations for Short Daily Home Hemodialysis and Nocturnal Home Hemodialysis

Advances in Renal Replacement Therapy, 2001
Technical considerations for daily short home hemodialysis and nocturnal home hemodialysis plays an important role in the long-term success of such programs. The equipment must be selected based on the patient and program requirements. System maintenance programs and patient education procedures must be developed to ensure patient safety and compliance
