High Flux Hemofiltration

Abstract
Experiments were performed using a new hollow fiber hemofilter. Ultrafiltration rates and whole human blood urea clearances were measured in post-dilution hemofiltration. High ultrafiltration rates were obtained with the new hemofilter. No adverse effects were detected despite filtration fractions above 45%. It is possible in post-dilution hemofiltration to obtain small solute clearances comparable to those of hemodialysis without apparent deleterious effects.
