Ultrafiltration Rate Effects Declines in Residual Kidney Function in Hemodialysis Patients
Background: High ultrafiltration rate (UFR) has been associated with increased mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, the impact of UFR on decline of residual kidney function (RKF) has not been elucidated among patients receiving conventional HD. Methods: We performed a retrospective coho...

Zusammenfassung: | Background: High ultrafiltration rate (UFR) has been associated with increased mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, the impact of UFR on decline of residual kidney function (RKF) has not been elucidated among patients receiving conventional HD. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of 7,753 patients who initiated conventional HD from 2007 to 2011 and survived the first year of dialysis with baseline UFR and renal urea clearance (KRU) data at baseline and 1 year (5th patient-quarter). The primary exposure was average UFR at the 1st patient-quarter from dialysis initiation ( |
