...Charles Chazot; Guillaume Jean Recently the concept that prescription of chronic hemodialysis (HD) start should be tailored based on residual renal function (RRF) and urine output (UO) has been revived from the past and called infrequent or incremental dialysis. It mainly consists in prescribing 1...

...Kamonwan Tangvoraphonkchai; Andrew Davenport Many patients with chronic kidney disease start undergoing thrice-weekly haemodialysis (HD), aiming for an HD sessional dialyzer urea clearance target, irrespective of whether they have residual renal function (RRF). While increasing sessional dialyzer...

...), serum albumin level, β2-microglobulin level, cardiovascular and diabetes history, and session time. Online haemodiafiltration did not change this result. The role of residual renal function was unlikely because 74% of the patients had a vintage of >18 months, a minority (5.8%) were prescribed loop...

... not assess fluid status routinely. Clinical assessment was the norm; 27% used bio-impedance-based device. To achieve a target-weight, 53% reduced weight as far as tolerated. Twenty-two per cent measured residual renal function (RRF). Ninety-one per cent had no policy for fluid overload. Sixty-four per cent...

... power of CysC in patients with a negligible GFR. Methods: Patients on chronic hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis were enrolled for measurement of CysC levels and were followed up for one year. A daily urine amount <100 ml was considered negligible residual renal function (RRF). Results: CysC results...

...Wen Tang; Li-Xian Li; Juan Pei; Tao Wang Background: The relationship between heart rate variability (HRV) and residual renal function (RRF) has not been elucidated previously. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, HRV was evaluated in 71 peritoneal dialysis patients. Patients were divided...

...Andrew Davenport; Rabya Hussain Sayed; Stanley Fan Background and Objectives: Residual renal function (RRF) is important for peritoneal dialysis (PD) technique failure and patient survival. Reduction in extracellular water (ECW) has been reported to reduce urine output. We audited volume status...

Levin Background/Aims: Few data are available on the impact of residual renal function (RRF) on mortality and hospitalization in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The objective of our...

Old age, protein-energy wasting [2, 3], comorbid diseases (CMD) [4, 5], increased peritoneal solute transport rate [6 8], low residual renal function (RRF...

Patients who had better residual renal function (RRF) had a significantly lower serum bicarbonate level...

...Hideki Kawanishi The greatest benefit of PD ist the continuous maintenance of a stable electrolyte and acid-base balance, as well as a continuous solute, sodium and water removal. Moreover, PD is effective in preserving residual renal function (RRF). However, when RRF declines, complications...

...Tsutomu Kuno; Kouichi Matsumoto Preserving residual renal function (RRF) after initiation of dialysis therapy is desirable for improving quality of life in ESRD patients. It has been believed that RRF declines more slowly in patients receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) than...

Early start of dialysis might reduce the progression rate of renal function deterioration, but exposes the peritoneum to bio-incompatible dialysis solutions for a longer time. The long-term alterations in the peritoneal membrane are probably mainly caused...
