Achieving high convective volume in hemodiafiltration: Lessons learned after successful implementation in the <scp>HDFit</scp> trial

Abstract

High-volume online hemodiafiltration was successfully implemented with 99% of patients achieving protocol defined CV target. Monthly mean CV was consistently >22 L/treatment during follow-up. Kt/V increased, and phosphate decreased with OL-HDF. Findings resulting from a short training period in several dialysis facilities appear to suggest HDF is an easily implementable technique.
