چکیده
The basics of targeting, writing, adjusting, and monitoring a hemodialysis prescription are reviewed for patients being dialyzed 3 or 4 times a week. K/DOQI 2006 adequacy guidelines and practice recommendations are reviewed, and a practical method using a variety of nomograms is suggested to monitor and adjust the desired level of Kt/V.

متن کاملOptimized Blood Volume Monitoring during Hemodialysis Procedure based on Ultrasonic Speed Measurement
Fast reduction of blood water volume due to ultra-filtration via hemodialysis machine and critical threshold of blood water volume can result in clinical complications such as hypotension. When blood water volume reduces during hemodialysis process, the concentration of blood forming elements will increase. One of the methods for the monitoring of the concentration changes is ultrasonic speed m...
متن کاملHome blood pressure measurements for managing hypertension in hemodialysis patients.
Home blood pressure (BP) monitoring serves as a practical method to detect changes in BP instead of ambulatory BP monitoring in hemodialysis patients. To evaluate the relationship of reduction in home BP compared to interdialytic ambulatory BP measurements we analyzed the data from the dry-weight reduction in hypertensive hemodialysis patients (DRIP) trial in which 100 patients had their dry we...

متن کاملConsequences of increasing convection onto patient care and protein removal in hemodialysis
INTRODUCTION Recent randomised controlled trials suggest that on-line hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) improves survival, provided that it reaches high convective volumes. However, there is scant information on the feasibility and the consequences of modifying convection volumes in clinics. METHODS Twelve stable dialysis patients were treated with high-flux 1.8 m2 polysulphone dialyzers and 4 level...
