P Removal

Background: Short frequent dialysis with NxStage System One cycler (NSO) has become increasingly popular as home hemodialysis prescription. Short dialysis sessions with NSO might not allow adequate phosphate (P) removal. Methods: Single-session and weekly balances of P and calcium (Ca) were compared in 14 patients treated with NSO (6 sessions/week) and in 14 patients on standard bicarbonate dialysis (BHD). Results: NSO and BHD showed similar plasma P fall, with end-dialysis plasma P slightly lower in BHD (2.2 ± 0.5 vs. 2.7 ± 0.8 mg/dL, p < 0.02). Single-session P removal was lower in NSO, but weekly removal was higher (3,488 ± 1,181 mg vs. 2,634 ± 878, p < 0.003). Plasma Ca increase was lower in NSO, with similar PTH fall. Ca balance varied according to start plasma Ca, dialysate to blood Ca gradient and net ultrafiltration. Conclusions: short, frequent home hemodialysis with NSO, on a 6/week-based prescription, allows higher weekly P removal than BHD. With the dialysate Ca concentration in use (6 mg/dL), total plasma Ca and iCa concentration increase is lower in NSO.

Cadaver Donor

SummaryHemodialysis was initiated in a mild-moderate hemophiliac at 15 years of age. Hematuria had been a frequent and persisting feature from the age of five years without documented cause. Anemia and proteinuria was first detected at 13 years. A cadaver donor renal transplant was carried out after three months of hemodialysis. Massive intravesical bleeding complicated the immediate post-transplantation period. The allograft rejected after three months and the patient was maintained for eight years on home hemodialysis. A second cadaver donor allograft was carried out at 23 years of age. Again, massive intravesical hemorrhage was a problem post-transplant. The allograft is currently functioning 27 months post-transplant. Factor VIIIc activities have fluctuated between 5% and 40% in the absence of factor infusions.
