  3. In 1913three medical scientists working in the Department of Pharmacology at Johns Hopkins Medical School devised equipment and methods for vividiffusion in animals;haemodialysis was invented. However, thirty years elapsed before a clinically effective system was designed, by Willem Kolff working in the Municipal Hospital at Kampen.

  4. THE FIRST ARTIFICIAL KIDNEY Four artificial kidneys built in 1943 and sent to the UK, the USA, Canada and Poland The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  5. Gordon Murray (1963) Murray’s first dialyser The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  6. The Murray-Roschlau ‘second-generation’ Flat-Plate Dialyser. • This was an advanced flat-plate parallel-flow dialyser with: • 30 layers of dialysis units. • Each unit with two membranes and two dialysis compartments. • Forming a dialyser of 0.6 m2 surface area and with a priming volume of only 225 ml. (National archive of Canada, MG 30 B110 D.W.G. Murray Papers, Volume 41, File 16, Negative No. C143613; Supplied by Dr. W. Roschlau).

  7. Urea (or BUN) levels Urea is the substance most often monitored in clinical practice because: • It is a small, readily dialyzed solute that is the bulk catabolite of dietary protein. • Constitutes 90% of waste nitrogen accumulated in body water. • Is easily measured in blood. • Fractional clearance of urea in body water correlates with patient outcomes. • BUN stands for Blood Urea Nitrogen.  With normal kidney function, a person has a BUN in the range of 8 - 25 mg/dl. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  8. Shooting for BUN Targets • In the 1970s and early 1980s, a common practice was to prescribe hemodialysis therapy in order to attain a target BUN. • The pre-treatment BUN never to exceed 80 mg/dl. To achieve that goal, they adjusted: • The amount of time on dialysis. • The blood flow rates. • Changed dialyzers. • Issued restrictions on dietary protein. Sad, but true - 1970's Renal Dietary Counseling: Stop eating so much protein OR WE'LL HAVE TO INCREASE YOUR DIALYSIS TIME !! Using target BUNs Seemed like a logical approach to prescribing hemodialysis. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  9. Questions No One Could Answer However, many patients who hitting these BUN targets were still not doing well, and some displayed symptoms of being underdialyzed. Why was this?   Why did patients who weighed the same and ate the same amount of protein require different amounts of dialysis therapy to stay healthy? Why were some patients who had pre-treatment BUNs of 100 perfectly healthy, yet others who had pre-treatment BUNs of 60 unhealthy and in need of more dialysis?

  10. t K V Using Urea Clearances • They found the data didn't make much sense until they invented a new way of measuring dialysis therapy. • Their new method still utilized urea, but it didn't use a target BUN. Instead, it measured the volume of blood that was cleared of urea during a treatment and compared it to the amount of water in the patient's body. • The end result was that Gotch and Sargent arrived at a simple, elegant formula for measuring dialysis therapy: The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  11. National Cooperative Dialysis Study (NCDS) • In the 1970's, the NCDS was funded to try to determine which dialysis therapies provided the best patient outcomes. • A huge database of information about dialysis patients for the first time. • Analyzed the study's database trying to find new common factors for those patients that were doing well (and for those patients that were doing poorly). Dr. John Sargent Prof. Frank Gotch

  12. Urea Kinetic Modeling • Why were some patients who had urea levels of 100 perfectly healthy, yet others who had levels of 60 unhealthy and in need of more dialysis? • Why did two patients who weighed the same amount need different lengths of dialysis treatments to stay healthy? • The formula Kt/V effectively answered these questions for the first time. • When Gotch and Sargent applied the Kt/V formula to the data they had for these patients, the healthy and unhealthy patients fell into two distinct numerical groupings. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  13. Urea Kinetic Modeling • If the patient had a Kt/V value that was 1.0 or higher, they were doing well in terms of being adequately dialyzed. • If they had a Kt/V value less than 0.8, they were underdialyzed and were doing poorly. • This new approach became known as UREA KINETIC MODELING. • It uses the results of two blood tests, pre and post treatment BUNs, in its calculations. • Urea kinetic modeling includes protein metabolism analyses and It calculates the protein catabolic rate (PCR). The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  14. Urea Kinetic Modeling Another benefit of Gotch and Sargent's analyses was that it provided strong scientific evidence that dialysis patients were better off eating more protein, not less. As more data accumulated, it became apparent that reducing protein in the diet to keep the urea levels low was actually resulting in patients not getting enough protein to stay healthy (low albumin levels). Over the years, it also became apparent that there were additional long-term benefits for the patients in increasing their Kt/V values to 1.2 and higher. At the 1970's patients who ate more than their allowed amount of protein were "punished" with more dialysis time. That were actually in sync with today's best clinical practices.

  15. Around 1990, researchers were able to show a high degree of correlation between Kt/V values and urea reduction ratios (URR).   A URR can be calculated with simple algebra and only uses the same two blood tests as the Kt/V equations. While a URR is not as accurate as a Kt/V value, nor does it provide any information about the patient's protein intake, a URR value does provide an easy-to-calculate marker for dialysis adequacy. As an example, a Kt/V of 1.2 is roughly equivalent to a URR of about 63 percent. Like Kt/V, the higher the URR value, the better.

  16. dialysis dose INCREASING DIALYSIS DOSE IMPROVED SURVIVAL Kidney Int 1996; 50:550

  17. Measures of dialysis adequacy • SpKt/V • eKt/V • StdKt/V • URR

  18. Urea reduction Ratio(URR) URR = 100 x (1-Ct/Co) Ct = postdialysis BUN Co = predialysis BUN

  19. Urea Reduction Volume (URR) • Simple • Prediction of mortality Limitation: Does not account for the contribution of UF to dialysis dose Kt/V=1.1 (UF=0) Kt/v = 1.35 (UF=10%BW) URR=65

  20. URR & Kt/V

  21. Hemodialysis Dose Measurement • The preferred method is by formal kinetic urea modeling K/DOQI 2006

  22. Kt/V Computerized software Mathematical logarithm Kt/v = -Ln (R-0.008t)+(4-3.5xR) x UF W Ln = natural logarithm R = postdialysis BUN predialysis BUN UF = Ultrafiltration volume in liters W = Postdialysis weight in kg

  23. BUN Sampling • Predialysis • Postdialysis • Immediate predialysis • Slow flow/stop pump

  24. Urea Rebound • Organs with low blood flow (skin, bone, muscles) may serve as reservoir for urea 70% of TBW is contained in organs that receive only 20% of CO So: during HD, there is loss of urea from well perfused areas, this result in  in BUN over 60 minutes post dialysis.

  25. Post Dialysis BUN Sampling • Avoid 2 rebound: • Early (<3min post dialysis) • Access recirculation,begin immediately post hemodialysis and rebound in 20 seconds • Cardiopulmonary recirculation, begin 20 seconds post hemodialysis and is completed in 2-3 minutes after slowing or stopping the blood pump. • Late (>3 min) • Completed within 30-60 minutes due to flow-volume disequilibrium.

  26. Urea Rebound 65% rebound ( >50% is AR,15%CP,31% D)

  27. Single-Compartment Fixed VolumeSolute Kinetic Mode

  28. Single-Pool vs Double-Pool Single-pool Does not account for urea transfer between fluid compartments With  dialyzer clearance, urea removed from extracellular compartment can exceed transfer from intracellular compartment Urea rebound (30-60 min) So: Dialysis dose will be overestimated if this urea pool is large (underestimated of true V)

  29. Two-Compartment Variable VolumeSolute Kinetic Model

  30. Equilibrated Kt/V • eKt/v is 0.2 units less than single-pool kt/v, but it can be as great 0.6 unit less. • For most patient, urea rebound is nearly complete in 15 minutes after hemodialysis but for minority, it may require up to 50-60 minutes • The degree of rebound is high in small patient • eKt/V= spKt/V - 0.6 x (spKt/V) / t + 0.03 (for arterial access) • eKt/V= spKt/V - 0.47 x (spKt/V) / t + 0.02 (for venous access)

  31. Minimum dialysis dose • SpKt/V > 1.2 US • eKt/V > 1.2 Europe • StdKt/V 2.14

  32. Daugirdas Formula

  33. Prescribed vs. delivered Kt/V Prescribed Kt/Vis a computerized estimation of what the patients Kt/V would be, based on the prescription • Delivered Kt/V is actual results based on how the patient really dialyzed the day the kinetic labs were drawn

  34. What Should You Do if Your Patient Kt/V Is Below 1.2 or if Your URR Is Below 65 Percent ? The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  35. The NKF-K/DOQI Hemodialysis Adequacy Work Group identified several topics pertinent to implementing and maintaining adequate hemodialysis. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  36. PATIENTS TO WHOM APPLIED ? These guidelines apply to all adult & pediatric HD patients with ESRD & negligible kidney function (GFR <5 mL/min) who receive outpatient HD three times per week. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  37. EVIDENCE-BASED Versus OPINION-BASED These guidelines are based on evidence in published literature & when not available, on consensus opinion of Work Group. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  38. GUIDELINE 1: REGULAR MEASUREMENT OF THE DELIVERED DOSE OF HD (EVIDENCE) The dialysis care team should routinely measure & monitor the delivered dose of HD. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  39. GUIDELINE 2: METHOD OF MEASUREMENT OF DELIVERED DOSE OF HD (EVIDENCE) The delivered dose of HD in adult & pediatric patients should be measured using formal urea kinetic modeling (UKM), employing the single-pool, variable volume model. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  40. UREA KINETIC MODELING (UKM) UKM also quantifies the amount of urea generated, which is a marker of the protein catabolic rate & therefore of protein intake. UKM is a method for verifying that the amount of dialysis prescribed (prescribed Kt/V) equals the amount of dialysis delivered (effective Kt/V). The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  41. CALCULATION OF Kt/V Kt/V may be determined by formal UKM or by extrapolation from the fractional change in blood urea concentration during a dialysis session. The delivered dose of HD may also be assessed using the URR. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  42. Formal UKM Impact of residual kidney function on urea clearance can also be considered. Advantages: When rigorously performed, it is a reproducible & quantitative method. It provides guidance about which specific parameters of prescription to modify, to achieve target HD dose (dialysis time, dialyzers, blood or dialysate flow rates). The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  43. Formal UKM Disadvantages: Complexity of calculations requires use of computational devices & software. Physical parameters, such as K & V, are difficult to measure & monitor & actual t can be difficult to determine. Time required for dialysis staff to collect & process all patient information to support these calculations can be significant. Although cost of computers & software is low, it is a factor for some dialysis centers. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  44. Statistical models • If a computer modeling program is not available, only one alternative method for calculating Kt/V (Kt/V natural logarithm formula) & one other measurement of the delivered dose of HD (URR) should be considered for routine use in adults. • A calculator capable of performing natural logarithms is required. Kt/V natural logarithm formula (Kt/V Ln): Kt/V = -Ln (R - 0.008 x t) + (4 - 3.5 x R) x UF/W. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  45. Kt/V natural logarithm formula Advantages: It provides the closest approximation to the single-pool, variable volume Kt/V derived from formal UKM. It is accurate over its full range (range, 0.7 to 2.1). It accounts for intradialytic volume changes secondary to UF & the resultant convective solute transport. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  46. Kt/V natural logarithm formula Limitations: • It does not permit rigorous, quantitative analysis of the HD prescriptions. (e.g. if delivered Kt/V is observed to be too low, Kt/V Ln does not provide insight into how therapy should be altered). • Alone it does not support calculation of nPCR (can be derived from a nomogram, or by an equation). Therefore, the HD Adequacy Work Group does not recommend this method for primary use. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  47. Urea reduction ratio (URR) • One of the three methods that HD Adequacy Work Group considered appropriate for measuring delivered dose of HD. • Calculation of URR: URR = (1 - [postdialysis BUN / predialysis BUN]) • Because of its ease of calculation, URR is frequently utilized. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  48. Urea Reduction Ratio (URR) Limitations: Does not support calculation of nPCR & ignores contribution of residual kidney function to urea clearance. Does not account for contribution of UF to final delivered dose of dialysis (less accurate). Errors in delivered dose of HD may be particularly difficult to detect in target range of URR of > or =65% where a curvilinear relationship exists between URR & Kt/V. Correcting observed deficiencies in URR requires empirical modification of components of treatment prescription. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  49. Percent Reduction In Urea (PRU) Involves the same calculation as URR except that the result is multiplied by 100 to be expressed as a percentage. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com

  50. Kt/V Derived From Percent Reduction Of Urea (PRU) Several equations are proposed to estimate Kt/V from PRU : Kt/V = (0.026 x PRU) - 0.460 Kt/V = (0.024 x PRU) - 0.276 These equations correlate reasonably well with the more rigorous UKM when the Kt/V & PCR are in the normal or expected range. These equations, although reasonably accurate, are not a substitute for Kt/V Ln formula. The urology & Nephrology center, Mansoura, Egypt e-mail : aiakl2001@yahoo.com
