Summary

Hemodialysis patients consume per year 18.720-26.208L of dialysis fluid (i.e. water). From an ecological point of view, the present study investigated whether reducing this water amount has an impact on the extraction and total solute removal of different uremic toxins. The efficiency of hemodiafiltration with a standard high-flux dialyzer is compared to hemodialysis with a medium cut-off dialyzer with a dialysate flow of either 700mL/min or 300mL/min.

Conditions

  • Uremic Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

Blood and dialysate sampling

Blood is sampled from the inlet and outlet dialyzer bloodline at 5min after dialysis start. Spent dialysate is sampled from the outlet dialysate line at 5, 30, 90 and 240min after dialysis start. Blood and dialysate samples are analysed for different uremic toxins. Dialysis efficiency is calculated from the analysed toxin concentrations.
