Measuring patient survival on hemodialysis.
Considering the progression of ESRD—left untreated and in the context of maintenance hemodialysis—there can be little doubt that the delivered dose of hemodialysis impacts patient survival. What remains at issue is how best to operationally define hemodialysis dose, a necessary precondition to defining the dose that represents “enough” dialysis. Presently, hemodialysis dose is most often measur...
متن کاملEffect of membrane permeability on survival of hemodialysis patients.
The effect of high-flux hemodialysis membranes on patient survival has not been unequivocally determined. In this prospective, randomized clinical trial, we enrolled 738 incident hemodialysis patients, stratified them by serum albumin < or = 4 and >4 g/dl, and assigned them to either low-flux or high-flux membranes. We followed patients for 3 to 7.5 yr. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed no ...
متن کاملWill Incremental Hemodialysis Preserve Residual Function and Improve Patient Survival?
The progressive loss of residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis patients is associated with increased mortality. It has been suggested that incremental dialysis may help preserve residual renal function and improve patient survival. Residual renal function depends upon both patient related and dialysis associated factors. Maintaining patients in an over-hydrated state may be associated w...
متن کاملNephrologist caseload and hemodialysis patient survival in an urban cohort.
Physician caseload may be a predictor of patient outcomes associated with various medical conditions and procedures, but the association between patient-physician ratio and mortality among patients undergoing hemodialysis has not been determined. We examined whether a higher patient-nephrologist ratio affects patient mortality risk using de-identified data from DaVita dialysis clinics and the U...
متن کاملConsiderations in the statistical analysis of hemodialysis patient survival.
The association of hemodialysis dosage with patient survival is controversial. Here, we tested the hypothesis that methods for survival analysis may influence conclusions regarding dialysis dosage and mortality. We analyzed all-cause mortality by proportional hazards and accelerated failure time regression models in a cohort of incident hemodialysis patients who were followed for 9 yr. Both mod...
