Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 1995
Today, more than 30 different polymers or polymer blends are used as materials for dialysis membranes. They can be categorized following the scheme of a family tree of haemodialysis membranes. The trunk represents membranes from regenerated cellulose, major branches show either synthetically modified cellulose membranes or membranes manufactured from ...

Normalization of Dialysis Dose for Daily Dialysis
Hemodialysis International, 2001The equilibrated Kt/V (eKtV) is widely used in hemodialysis (HD) as a measure of the intensity (magnitude) of an individual dialysis treatment. Adequate eKt/V for thrice‐weekly hemodialysis (twHD) has been extensively studied, and a value in the range 1.0 – 1.1 per treatment (3.0 – 3.3 weekly) is generally considered to represent adequate therapy for ...

Dialysis water as a determinant of the adequacy of dialysis
Seminars in Nephrology, 2005Hemodialysis patients are exposed to large volumes of water in the form of dialysate. Contaminants from the dialysate may cross the dialyzer membrane into the blood and have the potential to compromise the adequacy of dialysis. Several chemicals found commonly in drinking water have long been known to be toxic to hemodialysis patients.

Dialysis techniques: peritoneal dialysis
2004Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has now become an established form of renal replacement therapy. Its use throughout the world is increasing, and it has provided a means of managing some patients who would have otherwise been denied treatment because hemodialysis was inappropriate, had failed or was unavailable.

Blood Purification, 2008
More and more elderly (>65 years) patients are now reaching end-stage renal disease (ESRD) due to better management of co-morbid diseases. There are complex medical issues that need to be addressed when managing ESRD in this patient group. The option of dialysis in the elderly is a viable one.

Equilibrium dialysis and rate dialysis
2000Abstract Studies on the interaction of low molecular mass molecules, i.e. ligands, with high molecular mass protein molecules play fundamental roles in biomedical research. Among important examples to be mentioned are drug binding to plasma proteins, especially albumin (1), vitamins to their transport proteins, as well as binding of ...

Abstract Peritoneal dialysis is achieved by repeated cycles of instillation and drainage of dialysis fluid within the peritoneal cavity, with the two main functions of dialysis—solute and fluid removal—occurring due to the contact between dialysis fluid and the capillary circulation of the parietal and visceral peritoneum across the ...
