Peritoneal Dialysis and Preservation of Residual Renal Function
Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2009Residual renal function (RRF) is now generally recognized as an important factor in the prognosis of patients on dialysis. This review summarizes the differences between peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) with regard to RRF. The literature supports PD as having a more beneficial effect on RRF.

Residual Renal Function and Mortality Risk in Hemodialysis Patients
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2001Residual renal function, defined as the urinary clearance of urea and creatinine, is minimal in many patients treated with hemodialysis (HD) and tends to be ignored in most outcome studies involving HD patients. Recent studies showed that residual renal function, even at a low level, is influential in preventing mortality in the minority of patients ...

Loss of Residual Renal Function in Patients on Regular Haemodialysis
The International Journal of Artificial Organs, 1989 The literature offers scant data on loss of residual renal function in chronic haemodialysis patients. The present study was undertaken in 34 patients, to evaluate residual creatinine clearances (C Cr ) before the start of haemodialysis and after 3, 12 and 24 months. C Cr

Residual Renal Function in Hemodialysis and Inflammation
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, 2017AbstractResidual renal function (RRF) has an important effect on uremic toxin clearance, on volume control, on quality of life, and on mortality. In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), microinflammation with an increased percentage of CD14+/CD16++ inflammatory monocytes has been reported, even with no clinical evidence of inflammation.

An unexpected cause of residual renal function loss
Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 2020The residual renal function (RRF) in a peritoneal dialysis (PD) patient is clinically important because it contributes to dialytic adequacy, quality of life and mortality. We present the case of a patient in PD with a marked decrease in RRF. Even after the increase of dialysis, the patient maintained asthenia and anorexia, was prostrate and showed no ...

The influence of renal function on normalized residual activity
Nuclear Medicine Communications, 2004To quantify the influence of overall renal function on normalized residual activity (NORA) and to evaluate the modifying factors.A computer simulation model generated renograms by convolution of plasma disappearance curves with artificially created retention functions.

Preservation of Residual Renal Function with HDF
2010Previous studies have shown that the presence of the residual renal function (RRF) is associated with a lower mortality risk in hemodialysis (HD) patients. A factor promoting a decrease in the RRF has been reported to be dehydration. Therefore, we performed HD or online hemodiafiltration (HDF) without water removal, in which intravascular dehydration ...

Effects of residual renal function in haemodialysis patients
International Urology and Nephrology, 1994Thirty-six haemodialysis patients on treatment for more than six months were studied for residual renal function (RRF). Twenty patients were anuric. The remaining 16 patients with RRF excreted 35-1600 ml urine/day with creatinine clearance ranging 0.17-6.95 ml/min.
