“…Pending the results of other controlled studies in this area, these methods are being used increasingly, especially in patients with high comorbidity, long duration of dialysis therapy and contraindications to kidney transplantation [8]. Some experts recommended the use of high-volume online HDF in patients whose Age Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (AACCI) is ≥ 8 [9]. Particularly clinical benefits have been demonstrated in patients with hemodynamic instability, poorly controlled blood pressure (BP), polyneuropathy, calcium-phosphate disorders, pruritus or erythropoietin resistance, among others [2,10].…”

“…As the health care system adapts to the COVID 19 pandemic, an understanding of disease progression and prognosis in specific patient cohorts will allow for targeted and personalized care. Transplant recipients are of particular interest, as the chronic use of immunosuppression impairs the ability to fight off viral infection, thus increasing their susceptibility to the SARS-CoV 2 virus [ 1 , 2 ]. Kidney transplant patients commonly present with comorbidities including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular disease, which have been demonstrated to be risk factors associated with worse SARS-CoV 2 severity and higher mortality [ 3 ].…”
