    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: The dialytic management of hyper-phosphoremia, which is inadequate because of insufficient intra-dialytic removal of phosphate (P), is further limited by PDR-P, i.e. the significant increase in serum P levels during the early postdialytic period. Patients and methods. To investigate the effects of enhanced P removal by haemodiafiltration on the inter-dialytic phosphoremia, we studied 12 uremic patients that were switched, with cross-over randomised modality, to a single session of standard hemodialysis (HD) and hemodiafiltration (HDF) (Acute Study). Blood samples were obtained before the treatment, at the end (T0), after 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes, and at 24, 48 and 68 hours. During both dialytic treatments the whole effluent dialysate was collected to evaluate the intradialytic removal of P. Thereafter, patients were randomised to receive either HD or HDF for three months, in the presence of constantly similar Kt/V, food intake and dose of phosphate binder (Chronic Study). RESULTS: Acute Study. Compared to HD, P removal in HDF was about 44% greater in the presence of identical predialytic P levels (6.0+/-0.2 and 5.9+/-0.4 mg/dl) and Kt/V (1.35+/-0.06 and 1.34+/-0.05); however, the inter-dialytic decline of serum P levels did not differ (-50+/-3% versus -42+/-3%, p=0.098). In HDF, PDR-P was faster (30 min versus 90 min) and better (at T120: +69+/-6% versus +31+/-4%, p<0.001). The higher P levels were maintained throughout the inter-dialytic period whereas Ca x P changed in parallel. Chronic Study. During the three months, pre-dialytic serum P diminished in HDF (from 5.8+/-0.2 to 4.4+/-0.3 mg/dl, p<0.05), while it remained unchanged in HD. A similar pattern of changes was detected in Ca x P. CONCLUSIONS: Enhancement of P removal, acutely amplifies the extent of PDR-P, but allows better control of Ca-P homeostasis in the medium term. This effect is likely to be dependent on the enhanced mobilisation of phosphate from a deep compartment.
