title: [Technics and indications for hemofiltration treatment].
abstract: Technique, possibilities of application, advantages and disadvantages of haemofiltration are described. A convective mass transport underlies the method. By this means the elimination of molecules of different size takes place with the same speed and the removal of so-called middle molecules is performed more effectively than in the usual method of dialysis.
