| [ Summary ] | The equations and methods for evaluating dialyzer solute removal performance have been studied and utilized for some time. It's important for clinical engineers to understand the logic based background of these systems to utilize these equations and methods. With the higher performance of dialyzers and newly developed monitoring methods for improving the performance of dialyzers, which have been introduced, the equations and methods previously used for evaluating solute removal performance of dialyzers are often not suitable for present conditions. Therefore, we must utilize these equations and methods while considering present treatment conditions. |
