“…Several uncontrolled studies reported significant improvements in health-related quality of life when subjects were treated with more frequent in-center or home hemodialysis (23,45,50). Better control of uremia may have improved perceptions of wellbeing (23,28,51). In the Daily Trial, frequent hemodialysis increased extracellular fluid removal and as a result, may have improved selfperceived physical health and functioning through enhanced mobility and less fatigue, although no objective improvement in gait speed was observed (23).…”

“…Although increasing the per-session dose of dialysis (Kt/V urea ) led to better preservation of self-reported physical health and functioning among patients receiving hemodialysis three times per week (5), relatively little is known about whether and to what extent the frequency of dialysis influences overall physical health (21,22). Frequent compared with conventional hemodialysis might improve physical functioning through better control of uremia, improvement in exercise capacity, preservation of nutritional status and muscle mass, correction of acid-base imbalances, and reduction of interdialytic weight gain and hypervolemia (23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28).…”

“…The better ultrafiltration rate has been associated with better control of blood pressure [33,36,37], where the majority of dialysis patients discontinued antihypertensive medications after 6-12 months of daily/nocturnal dialysis [30,115]. Increasing dialysis frequency, and in particular nocturnal HD, has also been linked to significant improvement in renal anemia [31,116] and reduction in erythropoietin dosage and iron supplements [115], significant reduction in left ventricular mass index [33,36,117], improvement in mineral metabolism and significant reduction in phosphorus binders [33,36,37,114], improvement in nutritional status [30,118], enhanced quality of life [33,36,119] and increased cumulative survival rate [34]. Moreover, patients on nocturnal HD have a similar survival rate as that in deceased kidney transplant recipients [120].…”
