Hemodiafiltration

The application of hemodiafiltration has been restricted until
recently, when a broader clinical application has been made possible
due to evidence from large studies and clinical investigations. This
book provides an updated review of the evolution, advances and recent
results achieved by hemodiafiltration in the clinical arena.
The first part is devoted to historical notes and an outline of the
evolution of different forms of hemodiafiltration, made possible by
technological developments in the fields of membranes, machines and
fluids. The next section describes the theoretical rationale for
hemodiafiltration, providing a detailed analysis of the involved mass
separation processes, the hydraulic properties of the dialyzers,
fluid mechanics and crossfiltration in hollow fiber hemodialyzers. An
outline of different hemodiafiltration techniques, also reporting
peculiar transport mechanisms and related technology, is given next,
and a section on the clinical effects of hemodiafiltration concludes
this book.
Including different technologies, the publication offers a complete
overview of the technical and clinical possibilities provided by
hemodiafiltration in its widest concept, ranging from the molecular
basis to the most practical application. It will be a valuable tool
for the implementation of hemodiafiltration in daily practice aimed
at beginners and experts, scientists and physicians, students and
senior faculty members alike.
