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 ...

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 ...

Pregnancy in a Hemodialysis Patient With No Residual Renal Function
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1991Pregnancies have occurred in a few patients with end-stage renal disease requiring dialysis. The presence of significant residual renal function has normally been required for successful outcome. We report a pregnancy in a patient with complete anuria. Although birth occurred prematurely, fetal growth remained normal throughout gestation.

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.

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.

The importance of residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis
International Urology and Nephrology, 2016Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with preserved residual diuresis have a lower risk of death and complications. Here we analyzed associations between residual diuresis and presence of fluid overload and biomarkers of cardiac strain and nutrition in PD patients.Among 44 PD patients placed into three subgroups, depending on volume of residual diuresis ...

The “Heart” of Peritoneal Dialysis: Residual Renal Function
Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 2007The CANUSA study originally reported the importance of total small-solute clearance in predicting survival of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. However, subsequent reanalysis of data from the CANUSA study clearly demonstrated that the predictive power for mortality in PD patients was largely attributable to residual renal function (RRF) and not to the

Emerging Importance of Residual Renal Function in End‐Stage Renal Failure
Seminars in Dialysis, 2011AbstractResidual renal function (RRF) is well recognized as an important marker of outcomes in peritoneal dialysis (PD), and contributes vitally to solute clearance. Recently, its importance in hemodialysis (HD) has emerged with evidence that it is strongly associated with improved outcomes.

Impact of Residual Renal Function on Volume Status in Chronic Renal Failure
Blood Purification, 2004During the past few years, it has become increasingly evident that residual renal function (RRF) is an important and independent predictor of poor outcome in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although the causes of this observation are not fully understood, it appears that the loss of RRF impairs both fluid removal and clearance of solutes ...

Residual Renal Function and Effective Rehabilitation in Chronic Dialysis
Nephron, 2008The results of a 1–7 years follow-up of multiple processed and recorded semiquantitative parameters in 148 cases of chronic uremia on regular dialysis treatment (RDT) are reported. Patients were grouped according to different levels of residual creatinine clearance (CCr) at the beginning of treatment (0–5, 5–15, and 15–21 ml/min).
