Individualization of Ultrafiltration in Hemodialysis

Conclusion: Theoretical results and simulations show that our designed UFR profiles can remove the target amount of fluid in a given time period while keeping the hematocrit below a specified critical profile. Significance: Individualization of UFR profiles is now feasible using current HD technology and may reduce the incidence of intradialytic hypotension.
