Clinical application of a single compartment model to urea and creatinine kinetics in dialysis therapy. 1978

M L Sanfelippo, and W E Walker, and D A Hall, and R S Swenson

A single compartment mathematical model has been shown to accurately described changing serum concentrations of low molecular weight solutes (urea and creatinine) during dialysis. Clinical application of the model permits prediction of serum concentrations in response to changes in prescription of dialysis therapy. The programs presented here can be used to predict the effect of changes in treatment time and dialyzer clearance on serum concentrations. Sequential pre- and end-dialysis solute concentrations are displayed on a programmable pocket calculator. Dialyzer clearance during any individual dialysis can be calculated. These programs permit an evaluation of the efficacy of prescribed dialysis treatment schedules in advance of therapeutic trials.
