| [ Summary ] | There have been many reports suggesting the clinical significance of ultra-pure dialysis fluids in avoiding various dialysis related complications, such as dialysis related amyloidosis or MIA syndrome. Even though little conclusive evidence has been presented the usefulness of ultra-pure dialysis fluids has become widely accepted.
