Overview

Randomized trial assesses recirculation measurement reliability in dialysis patients, suggesting effective monitoring for complications.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the reproducibility, reliability, and sensitivity of measuring recirculation ratios in dialysis.
  • Included 44 patients treated with a monitoring device for recirculation measurement.
  • Analyzed 264 dialysis procedures, resulting in over 1000 recirculation measurements.
  • Utilized ultrafiltration-based density modification for automatic recirculation assessment.
  • The median recirculation ratio was 3%, with an interquartile range of 6.
  • Only 4% of measurements fell between 10% and 15%, and 6% exceeded 15%.
  • Recirculation values were consistent, with 90% of sessions showing differences under 10% in maximum values.
