  • Title: Hemodynamics of isolated ultrafiltration in chronic hemodialysis patients.
    Author: Paganini EP, Fouad F, Tarazi RC, Bravo EL, Nakamoto S.
    Journal: Trans Am Soc Artif Intern Organs; 1979; 25():422-5. PubMed ID: 524617.
    Abstract:
    Six patients on maintenance hemodialysis were investigated by direct determination of hemodynamic changes induced by UF. Our results show: 1. Despite a significant fall in ECF and PV, the PV/IF ratio was unchanged indicating absence of major fluid shifts between intravascular and extravascular compartments. 2. The rise in CPV/TBV ratio observed indicates central redistribution of intravascular fluid suggesting venoconstriction. 3. CPV and hence CO was maintained so that a stable MAP resulted.
