  • Title: Dialysate delivery: historical, theoretical, and practical aspect.
    Author: Friedman EA, Lundin AP.
    Journal: Kidney Int Suppl; 1980 Sep; 10():S33-43. PubMed ID: 7003204.
    Abstract:
    Maintenance hemodialysis has progressed from a tentative therapy for a few patients in Seattle to a generally available treatment sustaining 100,000 patients around the world. The technical principles of dialysis are sufficiently understood to permit fabrication of disposable dialyzers in sheet, coil, or hollow-fiber configuration. Dialysate delivery systems can serve either single patients or groups of patients with high efficiency. Reduction in size of single-parent systems by incorporation of dialysate regeneration or miniaturization of components in a suitcase will promote patient mobility.
