Parenteral nutrition and repeated hemodialysis of bilaterally nephrectomized conscious dogs. I. Experimental model.
The experimental model of the anephric, daily hemodialyzed conscious dog with exclusive nutrition was realized by means of a closed batch hemodialysis system (Rhodial 75) and a highly permeable polyacrylonitrile membrane (RP 6 dialyzer). Technical details, parenteral feeding, hemodialysis, and amino acid solutions preparations were described to realize a stable condition of the animals for further metabolic analyses during the early anephric period.
