Measure
Online Hemodiafiltration
Arm description: Online Hemodiafiltration first, then expanded hemodialysis. First, patients changed fom conventional HD to online hemodiafiltration for 1 month. Then, patients returned to conventional HD for 2 weeks (washout period). Then, patients underwent the second intervention (expanded hemodialysis) for 1 month, in a cross-over design.
Expanded Hemodialysis
Arm description: expanded hemodialysis first, then online hemodiafiltration. Intervention: Conversion from conventional HD to expanded hemodialysis for 1 month. Then, patients returned to conventional HD for 2 weeks (washout period). Then, they underwent the second intervention (online hemodiafiltration), for 1 month, in a cross-over design.

Outcome measures

Measure
Online Hemodiafiltration
n=16 Participants
The olHDF technique combines diffusion with high convection rates in which the dialysis fluid, free of toxins and pyrogens, is used to prepare the replacement fluid. The online module of dialysis machine prepares the replacement fluid by a cold sterilization process. There is a cross-flow water preparation, in order to avoid the accumulation of possible contaminants. The addition of bicarbonate and acid solutions to water follows the process. Next, the ready-for-infusion dialysis solution is passed through another ultrafilter prior to being infused into patients.
Expanded Hemodialysis
n=16 Participants
High cutoff with high retention onset dialyzers allow clearance of middle molecules, without reducing significantly serum concentration of albumin.
Medium Molecule Clearance
53 ml/min
Interval 41.8 to 63.7
59.5 ml/min
Interval 50.5 to 70.0
