Validation of a Two-Pool Model for the Kinetics of ß2-Microglobulin

Abstract: The parameters of a two-pool model of beta2-m kinetics can be derived from concentration profiles obtained under routine dialysis conditions, but accuracy is not completely satisfactory. Similar to the dialysis dose for urea (Kt/Vurea) the dialysis dose for beta2-m (Kt/Vbeta2-m) can be calculated from the pre- and post-dialysis concentrations of beta2-m, body weight, ultrafiltration and dialysis time. Kt/Vbeta2-m > 1.2 secures the maximum possible removal of beta2-m in HD with three sessions per week.

“…Some of these studies have concentrated on β2-microglobulin, which has a high molecular weight as compared to the guanidino compounds presently studied [25,26]. Other studies have concentrated on phosphate, which is known to be distributed in at least two to four different compartments [27].…”

“…Our simulations can be considered as being performed in an ‘average patient on dialysis’ since we used kinetic models that were previously calibrated on patient’s data [5,6,7]. However, some weaknesses of the modeling approach should be highlighted.…”

“…The data of two-compartment calibrated kinetic models were taken from literature for urea and methylguanidine (MG) [5], β 2 -microglobulin (β 2 M) [6], and phosphate (P) [7] (see table 1). …”

“…Intercompartmental clearance is more comparable to that of β 2 -microglobulin (K 12 30-80 mL/min) [14,15]. However, iodine is distributed in a much larger plasmatic volume (V 1 19.4 L, compared to 1.8 L for β 2 M) and larger total distribution volume (55% TBW, compared to 25-36% TBW for β 2 M) [15,16]. Hence, iodine plasmatic as well as extraplasmatic concentrations will decrease more slowly than those of β 2 M.…”
