[Report on long-term hemofiltration in the treatment of end-stage renal failure].
Thirteen uraemic patients in chronic hemofiltration was studied over a 37.3 +/- 25.4 months period. Hemofiltration value in long-term treatment of uraemia was verified by: dialytic adequacy, clinical data, complications, drop-out morbidity and survival. Our experience indicates that hemofiltration and especially high efficiency hemofiltration is an effective and soft therapy for substitutive long-term treatment in high risk patients.
