Abstract:Expanded hemodialysis therapy is a new concept in blood purification technology using a specific membrane with a steep sieving curve characterized by medium membrane cutoff and high retention onset values that are close to but lower than those of albumin. Expanded hemodialysis therapy thereby targets an important pathophysiologic link to many of the sequelae of end-stage renal disease, by improving the clearance of medium to larger-size solutes. The significant internal filtration achieved in these hemodialyze… Show more
