Reinfusion of ascites during hemodialysis as a treatment of massive refractory ascites and acute renal failure
Refractory ascites can occur in patients with various conditions. Although several procedures based on the reinfusion of ascitic fluid have been reported after the failure of bed rest, salt and water restriction, diuretics, intravenous administration of albumin, and repeated paracentesis, these procedures are performed for ascitic fluid removal without dialytic effect. In this study, a flow con...
متن کاملPathogenesis and Treatment of Dyskalemia in Maintenance Hemodialysis and CAPD
In end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients regardless of dialysis modes, i.e. maintenance hemodialysis (HD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), potassium (K) homeostasis is regulated primarily via dialysis and extrarenal K regulation in the diverse daily K intake. However, K metabolism has been known to differ greatly between the two main methods of dialysis. Hyperkalemia is a...

Although this agent is now widely used in clinical practice, few reports have so far been published regarding its real-world efficacy. The r...
متن کاملTreatment of refractory ascites with an automated low‐flow ascites pump in patients with cirrhosis
BACKGROUND Refractory ascites (RA) is a frequent complication of cirrhosis, requiring large volume paracentesis or placement of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPSS). The automated low-flow ascites pump (alfapump, Sequana Medical AG, Zurich, Switzerland) is an innovative treatment option for patients with RA. AIM To assess safety and efficacy of this treatment in patients wi...
