Adsorption in hemodialysis [PDF]
Kidney International, 2000 The use of sorbents in different blood purification techniques is reviewed. The sorbents used in these therapies are divided into two groups: (1) Adsorption occurs fundamentally because of the hydrophobic properties of the sorbents. In this group, the sorbents used in different dialysis techniques are charcoal and nonionic macroporous resins.

Mineral metabolism, mortality, and morbidity in maintenance hemodialysis.
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2004 Mortality rates in ESRD are unacceptably high. Disorders of mineral metabolism (hyperphosphatemia, hypercalcemia, and secondary hyperparathyroidism) are potentially modifiable. For determining associations among disorders of mineral metabolism, mortality,

Towards the Trustworthy Development of Active Medical Devices: A Hemodialysis Case Study [PDF]
IEEE Embedded Systems Letters, vol. 8, no. 1, pp. 14-17 (March
2016), 2017 The use of embedded software is advancing in modern medical devices, so does its capabilities and complexity. This paradigm shift brings many challenges such as an increased rate of medical device failures due to software faults. In this letter, we present a rigorous correct by construction approach for the trustworthy development of hemodialysis ...

Optimization of anemia treatment in hemodialysis patients via reinforcement learning [PDF]
Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, Volume 62, Issue 1, September
2014, Pages 47-60, 2015 Objective: Anemia is a frequent comorbidity in hemodialysis patients that can be successfully treated by administering erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). ESAs dosing is currently based on clinical protocols that often do not account for the high inter- and intra-individual variability in the patient's response.
