Improving Solute Clearances by Hemodialysis

Abstract: The adequacy of hemodialysis is now assessed by measuring the removal of the single-solute urea. The urea clearance provided by contemporary dialysis is a large fraction of the blood flow through the dialyzer and therefore cannot be increased much further. Other solutes however likely contribute more than urea to the residual uremic illness suffered by hemodialysis patients. We here review methods which could be employed to increase the clearance of nonurea solutes. We will separately consider the clearances o… Show more

“…CLHD is the clearance rate of dialysis, BFR is the blood flow rate, DFR is the dialysate flow rate, and KoA is the product of the mass transfer coefficient and membrane surface area of Dialyzers used in clinical studies. The KoA was estimated to be 188 mL/min ( Lee et al, 2022 ). BFR, DFR, and the duration of dialysis were adjusted according to the parameter settings of the clinical study.…”

“…The dissociation does not occur until the concentration of the unbound fraction decreases, a process that unfolds gradually due to its dialysis over the course of the session. Despite the rapid dissociation capacity of albumin [ 79 ], the equilibrium is eventually restored as the bound fraction is gradually released. However, the passage of toxins from the tissue compartment to the blood is very slow and constitutes the most limiting factor.…”

“…Adsorption is a method for removal of molecules via attachment to various sorbents because of chemical affinity to ion-exchange resins and chemisorbents [153]. Sorbents and adsorptive technologies provide a means to remove highly protein-bound solutes which are not effectively cleared by diffusion or convection [154].…”
