... method of fluid management during CRRT is still unclear and warrants further investigation, observational data have suggested a U-shape relationship between net ultrafiltration rate and mortality. Furthermore, recent clinical data have underpinned a significant gap in prescribed versus achieved fluid...

...Damien Ashby; Richard Corbett; Neill Duncan Introduction: Excessive ultrafiltration is associated with intra-dialytic symptoms, loss of residual function, and mortality in haemodialysis patients. A major contributor to excessive ultrafiltration is within-individual variation in pre-dialysis weight...

Kovesdy; Kamyar Kalantar-Zadeh; Elani Streja Background/Aims: Ultrafiltration rate (UFR) appears to be associated with mortality in prevalent hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, the association of UFR...

... consisted of ultrafiltration (UF) greater than 1,000 ml/h, and the second half consisted of no UF. Changes in relative BV were measured using continous hemoglobinometry. Total BV at the end of treatment was 74.3 ± 6.9% of the pretreatment volume. A significant positive correlation between BV and the levels...

...Farhad Khalil-Manesh; Cathy Agness; Harvey C. Gonick Ultrafiltration experiments, using Amicon® membranes with molecular weight exclusions of 1,000, 10,000 and 30,000 daltons, have revealed that Desferal®, both in vitro and in vivo, markedly increases aluminum ultrafilterability in plasma from...

...Robert A. Mactier; Ramesh Khanna; Harold Moore; Zbylut J. Twardowski; Karl D. Nolph Lymphatic drainage from the peritoneal cavity occurs mainly via the subdiaphragmatic stomata and significantly reduces net ultrafiltration and solute clearances during long-dwell peritoneal dialysis. Intraperitoneal...

The accuracy of this calculation was demonstrated by comparing the predictged value with the concentration of sodium measured in an ultrafiltrate obtained at minimal filtration fraction. Third, the sodium fluxes using...

... amphotericin B added to instilled dialysis fluid increased peritoneal ultrafiltration from 0.31 to 0.44 ml/kg/ min (p < 0.02), but did not affect mass transport (e.g. urea clearance changed from 0.86 to 1.04 ml/kg/min). In contrast, 10 mg of desoxycholate induced peritoneal irritation and raised clearances...
