Blood Urea Nitrogen Stability: A Feasibility Study for Home Hemodialysis Adequacy Testing Through Mail.
Urea kinetic modeling measures the delivered dose of hemodialysis and is used to monitor dialysis adequacy. Obtaining samples for adequacy calculations is a challenge for home hemodialysis (HHD) patients. Ideally, the urea reduction ratio (URR) should be measured at a typical dialysis session; therefore, for HHD patients test specimens should be drawn at home and transferred to a clinical labor...

متن کاملAdequacy of hemodialysis in Nepalese patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.
INTRODUCTION Inadequate dialysis accounts for the high mortality in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). In Nepal, due to various factors including financial and logistic limitations, hemodialysis is mostly performed twice-a-week. This study was undertaken to look at adequacy of dialysis in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis in Nepal where the patients profile, in terms of di...
متن کاملAssessing Model Adequacy
Environmental models are simplified representations of complex physical systems. The implementation of any such model, as a computer simulator, involves further simplifications and approximations. The value of the resulting simulator, in giving scientific and practical insights into the functioning of the corresponding physical system, depends both on the nature and degree of these simplificati...
متن کاملNutrition parameters as hemodialysis adequacy markers.
BACKGROUND AND AIM The nutritive status has significant role in improving the quality of life of dialysis' patients. The aim of this study was to find out if there is any correlation of the anthropometric parameters and markers of nutrition with the adequacy of HD. METHODS The investigation was organized as a clinical, cross sectional study. Demographic characteristics, co-morbid conditions, ...
