title: Use of the AN69-S (Biospal) in conventional hemodialysis (HD) and in biofiltration (BF).
abstract: The authors report the results of a comparative study between biofiltration and conventional hemodialysis with cuprophan and AN69-S hemodialyzers. Using AN69-S in conventional hemodialysis and in biofiltration, there was an almost total absence of cramps, headache, nausea, vomiting and symptomatic hypotension even though map and DBW were reduced.
