Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to compare purification efficiency of HFR in terms of clearance of protein-bound toxins and the effects on markers of inflammation and endothelial damage, in comparison to HF-HD and OL-HDF.
Detailed Description:
Protein-bound uremic toxins are poorly removed by current dialysis techniques because of their size, which is larger than the pore size of dialysis membranes available in the market. These protein-bound uremic toxins have emerged as important risk factors for progression of CKD, as well as for cardiovascular disease. Several studies have demonstrated that protein-bound uremic toxins induce vascular inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and vascular calcification.
In dialysis patients, serum concentrations of p-cresyl sulphate and indoxyl sulphate are approximately 17 and 54 times higher, respectively, than in healthy subjects. Because these toxins are bound to proteins, only a 30% or less is removed efficiently by hemodialysis. Traditional renal replacement therapies depend upon diffusion and convection for solute clearances and the use of an adsorbent in combination with dialysis membranes may be a new therapeutic option to increase removal rate of these uremic protein-bound toxins.
HFR technique uses a dual dialyzer with a resin between chambers. The first chamber is a high-flux membrane where convective process takes place. The ultrafiltrate obtained from this first chamber passes through the cartridge and is reinfused before the second chamber, a low-flux membrane, where diffusive process is performed.
In HFR, adsorption and haemodiafiltration are attached, using ultrafiltrate as a replacement fluid and being capable of theoretically removing most medium and high molecular weight uremic toxins. A potential benefit has been regarded for toxicity, biocompatibility, tolerance, and preservation of essential elements such as albumin, vitamins, amino acids or growth factors. An improvement on oxidative stress has also been described in HFR.
