title: [Acetate free biofiltration (AFB) and ionic dialysance].
abstract: Among various methods and models to evaluate the dialysis dose, the on-line measure of ionic dialysance gives good results. Compared to measured KT/V, ionic dialysance does not require blood sampling and, consequently, it reduces the risks and the costs. Functional evaluations during acetate free biofiltration (AFB treatments) confirm the usefulness of the on-line continuous measure by biosensors, especially when they are integrated in the dialysis machinery.
