Midazolam Dosing During CRRT: A Combined Ex Vivo and Physiologically‐Based Pharmacokinetic Approach
ABSTRACT Children supported with continuous renal replacement therapy have high mortality rates ranging from 30% to 70%. The cause of this high mortality is multifactorial and includes ineffective drug dosing and altered drug pharmacokinetics. Changes in drug exposure can result from (1) underlying disease; and (2) direct drug interaction and/or ...

A systematic review and meta-analysis of systemic intraoperative anticoagulation during arteriovenous access formation for dialysis [PDF]
Purpose: Surgical arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or graft (AVG) is preferred to a central venous catheter for dialysis access. Surgical access may suffer thrombosis early after placement and systemic anticoagulation during surgical access formation may ...

ABSTRACT Background Synthetic dialysis membranes, particularly those composed of polysulfone blended with polyvinylpyrrolidone, are commonly used in hemodialysis due to their efficiency. However, hypersensitivity reactions—often atypical and not fitting traditional type A and B classifications—have increasingly been reported.

An analytical solution to solute transport in continuous arterio-venous hemodiafiltration (CAVHD) [PDF]
In conventional intermittent hemodialysis, the overall mass transfer coefficient (Ko) of a dialyser is mostly calculated at zero ultrafiltration and at relatively high dialysate flow rates.
