Combined hemodialfiltration and automated PD achieved a Kt/Vurea of
4.8-5.4 L/wk, and combined urea clearance of 123.8-173.8 in three
patients with moderate sensorimotor neuropathy. Over the mean
observation period of 13.3 months the patients had increases in muscle
strength, and on EMG improvement and reversal of axonal loss. The
authors conclude that the "optimal" dialysis dose should be
re-examined.
