Effect of increasing dialysate flow rate on diffusive mass transfer of urea, phosphate and β(2)-microglobulin during clinical haemodialysis

Background. Diffusive clearance depends on blood and dialysate flow rates and the overall mass transfer area coefficient (K(o)A) of the dialyzer. Although K(o)A should be constant for a given dialyzer, urea K(o)A has been reported to vary with dialysate flow rate possibly because of improvements in...
