A simple method for the calculation of dialysis Kt factor as a quantitative measure of removal efficiency of uremic retention solutes: Applicability to high-dialysate vs low-dialysate volume technologies

Dialysis urea removal metrics may not translate into proportional removal efficiency of non-urea solutes. We show that the Kt factor (plasma volume totally cleared of any solutes) differentiates removal efficiency of non-urea solutes in different technologies, and can easily be calculated by instant...
