  • Title: Current status of hemofiltration.
    Author: Henderson LW.
    Journal: Artif Organs; 1978 May; 2(2):120-4. PubMed ID: 687163.
    Abstract:
    Hemofiltration is reviewed from the standpoint of the technical and clinical state of the art. It is a new technique and, at present, commercially available equipment is limited. Clinical experience suggests that hemofiltration results in easier attainment of salt and water balance and that control of hypertension is improved. The nomenclature used to describe convective solute and water removal alone and in conjunction with dialysis is outlined.
