Hemodiafiltration Reduced Dialysis Mortality in Kidney Failure
High-dose hemodiafiltration improved survival compared with standard hemodialysis for patients with kidney failure resulting in the need for kidney-replacement therapy, according to the randomized CONVINCE trial. High-dose hemodiafiltration cut all-cause mortality to 17.3% compared with 21.9% on conventional high-flux hemodialysis over a median 30 months of follow-up (HR 0.77, 95% CI 0.65-0.93), reported researchers led […]
