An unexpected cause of residual renal function loss

Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 2020
The 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 ...

Residual Renal Function in Hemodialysis and Inflammation

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, 2017
AbstractResidual 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.

The influence of renal function on normalized residual activity

Nuclear Medicine Communications, 2004
To 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.

Effects of residual renal function in haemodialysis patients

International Urology and Nephrology, 1994
Thirty-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.

Preservation of Residual Renal Function with HDF

2010
Previous 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, 1991
Pregnancies 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.

Impact of residual renal function in children on hemodialysis

Pediatric Nephrology, 2001
Residual renal function (RRF) contributes to dialysis adequacy as well as lower mortality and morbidity in dialysis patients. Even very small changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) account for considerable improvements in complications of dialysis.

The importance of residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis

International Urology and Nephrology, 2016
Peritoneal 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, 2007
The 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

Impact of Residual Renal Function on Volume Status in Chronic Renal Failure

Blood Purification, 2004
During 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 ...
