Dialysance of molecules of different size in reused Kiil, Ab-Gambro, and Rhône-Poulenc dialysers.

چکیده
Dialysances of urea, creatinine, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, and ouabain were determined in three different flat-bed dialysers during three successive uses on 15 patients. There were no untoward reactions. A significant decrease in dialysing efficiency was observed only with the Ab-Gambro dialyser, in which the dialysance of the small molecules decreased more than that of the large. This is thought to result from blood deposits on the membrane surface inhibiting exchange.

SIR,-We read with interest the paper of Dr. P. Kramer and others (6 May, p. 320) and while we agree that the decrease in efficiency with re-use may be the result of "blood deposits on the membrane surface inhibiting exchange," we feel there are two points which must be made. Firstly, the aurhors say that of the dialysers studied, the Ab-Gambro dialyser had the greatest blood loss due to "blood ...

متن کاملClinical evaluation of a disposable artificial kidney.
The in-vivo performance of a new disposable parallel flow countercurrent type of artificial kidney has been compared with that of the modified four-layered Kiil dialyser. The dialysance of urea and endogenous creatinine in the former was significantly better than in the latter for similar blood flow rates, and, moreover, unlike the dialysance with the Kiil dialyser it continued to improve over ...
متن کاملStudies of contact activation of blood in haemodialysis.
A study of patients on Kiil and Travenol coil dialysis has shown that kallikrein esterase, the kinin precursor, is increased in the venous blood during dialysis and that this is accompanied by an increase in the venous effluent of the dialysers. In addition Hageman factor depletion and an increase of platelet factor 4 has been found in the venous effluent. Such studies indicate surface activati...
متن کاملTargeting the American market for medicines, ca. 1950s-1970s: ICI and Rhône-Poulenc compared.
The forces that have shaped American medicine include a wide set of interrelated changes, among them the changing research, development, and marketing practices of the pharmaceutical industry. This article compares the research and development (R&D) and marketing strategies of the British group Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI, whose Pharmaceutical Division was spun off and merged with the Swe...
