Comment# 1

The mass transfer-area coefficient for a given dialyzersolute combination (KoA) is assumed constant in hollow fiber dialyzers. However, controversial effects on KoA and solute clearance (K) were reported by increasing the dialysate flow rate (QD). Leypoldt 1,2 showed that urea KoA increases in vitro by an average of 147 (range 3 to 33) with an increase in QD from 500 to 800 ml/min, with greater effect for high flux membranes. While other Authors confirmed these findings in vivo3,4, Bihami5 reported that increasing QD beyond 600 ml/min have only a modest impact on dialyzer performance, limited to the theoretical increase predicted by the Michaels model6 for a constant KoA (Equation1).More recently it was claimed that reduced QD rates in high-efficiency on-line HDF offer substantial savings in dialysate consumption without decreasing dialysis efficiency with respect to high-flux haemodialysis7.
