In nephrology, dialysis adequacy is the measurement of renal dialysis for the purpose of determining dialysis treatment regime and to better understand the pathophysiology of renal dialysis. [1]
Standardized Kt/V, also std Kt/V, is a way of measuring dialysis adequacy. It was developed by Frank Gotch and is used in the United States to measure dialysis. Despite the name, it is quite different from Kt/V. In theory, both peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis can be quantified with std Kt/V.
where C is the concentration [mol/m 3]; t is the time [s]; K is the clearance [m 3 /s]; V is the volume of distribution [m 3]; From the above definitions it follows that is the first derivative of concentration with respect to time, i.e. the change in concentration with time.

Hemodialysis product (HDP) - is a number used to quantify hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis treatment adequacy. It was proposed by Scribner and Oreopoulous because of their perceived inadequacy of the Kt/V measure of dialysis adequacy. The HDP is defined by the following empirical formula: HDP = t * f 2. Where: HDP - hemodialysis product
