Effects of hemodialysis dose on anemia, hypertension, and nutrition.

There is good evidence that by improving dialysis adequacy, morbidity, and mortality of hemodialysis (HD) patients decrease. Dialysis adequacy has also been related to the better control of arterial blood pressure (BP), anemia and improvement of patients' nutritional status. This is a self-control study of 34 HD patients, (23 males, 11 females), aged 52.

The Clinical Impact of Increasing the Hemodialysis Dose.

Good evidence suggests that improvements in dialysis efficiency reduce morbidity and mortality of hemodialysis (HD) patients. Dialysis efficiency has also been related to better control of arterial blood pressure (BP), anemia, and serum phosphorus levels, and to improvement in patients' nutritional status. Over a 2-year period, the present self-controlled study of 34 HD patients (23 men, 11 women; age, 52.
