Will Incremental Hemodialysis Preserve Residual Function and Improve Patient Survival? [PDF]
, 2014 The progressive loss of residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis patients is associated with increased mortality. It has been suggested that incremental dialysis may help preserve residual renal function and improve patient survival. Residual renal

Continued monitoring of acute kidney injury survivors might not be necessary in those regaining an estimated glomerular filtration rate > 60 mL/min at 1 year [PDF]
, 2017 Background. Severe acute kidney injury (AKI) among hospitalized patients often necessitates initiation of short-term dialysis. Little is known about the long-term outcome of those who recover to normal renal function.

Opioids in Patients on Renal Dialysis [PDF]
Journal of Pain and Symptom Management, 2007 Delivering opioids to patients on renal dialysis and achieving pain control poses a great challenge. The opioid must be suitable for patients with grossly abnormal renal function. The opioid used in renal failure should be able to completely metabolize to inactivate components that are not dependent on the kidney elimination.
