How Can We Improve the Solute and Fluid Transport Prescriptions in Hemodialysis to Improve Patient Outcomes?

Abstract: Improvements in the dialysis prescription can only be achieved by changes in solute and water transport which provide better control of the metabolic uremic abnormalities that are amenable to dialysis. The key abnormalities identified here are protein catabolites, fluid and electrolyte balance, calcium and phosphorus balance and bone metabolism and acid-base balance. The history of the dialysis prescription is reviewed and changes which might improve the control of these metabolic systems are described. This r… Show more

“…Following reports of centres employing long-term extended daytime HD demonstrating significantly improved five-and ten-year patient survival rates of 73% and 54% respectively (Charra et al 1992, Chazot & Jean 2008, the focus has switched to intensive dialysis regimens (Gotch et al 2013) Our local observational data (Singh et al 2013) concurs with findings from international registries that longer treatment time is associated with lower mortality risk (Tentori et al 2012). Consequently, the Frequent Haemodialysis Network (FHN) (Chertow et al 2010) were commissioned to review the relationships between daily short duration HD and daily long duration nocturnal HD in randomised controlled trials.…”

“…A previously conducted study also associated HD with significant net increases in removal of several uremic toxins including β2‐MG, homocysteine (Hcy) and Scr as well as a net decrease in circulating inflammatory markers such as interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), demonstrating the significant therapeutic effects of HD in toxin elimination and inflammation, thus supporting its clinical value in ESRD patients . In addition, HD consists of conventional low‐flux HD and convective therapies, which could remove excess fluid and metabolic wastes from patients and maintain the normal physiological levels of electrolyte and acid‐base balance …”

“…Currently, four hours per session is recommended in a thrice-weekly dialysis schedule [13]. As this advice is mainly based on nonrandomized studies, which are prone to confounding, a treatment time of four hours is rather arbitrary, especially since patient characteristics, such as body size and residual kidney function, are not taken into consideration [28,29]. …”
