Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In 1994, the water quality standard of dialysate and substitution fluid for on-line HDF was established by the Kyushu Society for HDF. On the other hand, with the widespread use of high-flux membrane, reverse filtration and reverse diffusion became evident, and purification of the dialysate has become essential even for usual hemodialysis. By using ultrapure dialysate, new blood purification methods can be performed, such as internal filtration-enhanced hemodialysis, on-line HDF, and on-line HF. As a result, various clinical effects have been reported, such as improvement in anemia and in chronic inflammatory reactions. Suppression of complications involving long-term dialysis is expected, and even the prolongation of life expectancy. By using ultrapure dialysate as substitution fluid for saline solution, a fully automated dialysis machine has been developed. Furthermore, if fully automated consoles can be made smaller in size, they will contribute to the widespread use of home hemodialysis.
