- Title
Dual-Concentrate Bicarbonate-Based Hemodialysis: Know Your Buffers.
- Authors
Kohn, Orly F.; Kjellstrand, Carl M.; Ing, Todd S.
- Abstract
The authors discuss the aspects of hemodialysis based on dual-concentrate bicarbonate. The authors say that the base concentrate contains liquid or powdered sodium bicarbonate. They state that several hemodialysis machines have proportioning system for the on-line preparation of dialysates. They add that bicarbonate dose during bicarbonate dialysis depends on the bicarbonate's concentration gradient between plasma water and dialysate, as well as on the efficiency of the dialysis.
