| [ Summary ] | It is crucial to purify dialysis fluids when performing on-line hemodiafiltration (HDF) treatment. In order to constantly supply purified dialysis fluids, it is necessary to construct an appropriate purified dialysis fluid supply system. We need to understand the mechanism of equipment used for dialysis fluid supply systems such as water treatment equipment and dialysis fluid production/supply systems, and strive for them to constantly produce purified dialysis fluids through daily management. In order to purify dialysis fluids, the appropriate management of endotoxin retentive filters and dialysis fluid supply lines is important and requires appropriate daily disinfection. |
