Effect of Pre-dialysis Serum Sodium Measurement on Reduction of Hemodialysis Complications.

Introduction: Despite great advances in hemodialysis, complications during dialysis remain in force. Accurate assessment of dry weight is a determining factor in the prevention of hemodialysis complications. This study is designed to evaluate the effect of adjustment of ultrafiltration rate, on hemodialysis complications, based on dry weight calculation, by measuring the pre-dialysis serum sodium.
