Abstract
Introduction: The aim of this study is to compare molecule removal and albumin leakage in postdilution online hemodiafiltration with different high‐flux dialyzers. Methods: We studied seven high‐flux dialyzers (Polyflux 210H®, Evodial 2.2®, FxCordiax1000®, Elisio21H®, TS‐2.1SL®, XevontaHi20®, VitaPES 210‐HF®) in 6 patients. The reduction ratio (RR) of small‐ and middle‐sized molecules was calculated. Dialysate samples were collected to estimate the albumin leakage. Findings: Global differences between dialyzers were observed in the RR of ß2 microglobulin (P =0.003) and prolactin (P =0.013). The mean loss of albumin in the dialysate per session varied between 114 ± 67 mg (with Evodial 2.2) and 2621 ± 1363 mg per session (with XevontaHi20). We found global differences between dialyzers in total albumin loss (P = 0.05). Discussion: We demonstrated that the performance of high‐flux dialyzers was different among the types and that not all high‐flux dialyzers should be considered equal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
