Summary

Convective therapies have been proposed for improving chronic dialysis patient outcomes, including intradialytic symptomatic hypotension.

To evaluate the frequency of sessions with intradialytic symptomatic hypotension in different types and doses of convective therapies compared with low-flux hemodialysis (HD), the investigators performed a multicentre, open-label, randomized controlled trial.

Conditions

  • Uremia

PROCEDURE

online pre-dilution hemodiafiltration

Online pre-dilution hemodiafiltration was performed with a synthetic high-flux membrane with an infusate/blood flow ratio of 0.6 and a dialysate plus infusate rate of 700 ml/min.
