Predilution haemofiltration—the Second Sardinian Multicentre Study: comparisons between haemofiltration and haemodialysis during identical Kt/V and session times in a long‐term cross‐over study

Abstract

HF has a progressive stabilizing haemodynamic effect, producing a more physiological cardiovascular profile than HD. This long-term effect, observed in stable patients treated under strictly identical conditions, is probably due to the mechanism of convection, and is different from the acute effect observed mainly in unstable patients.
