Slow continuous ultrafiltration (SCUF) is an artificial method which approximately mimics the ultrafiltration function of the kidneys. SCUF is a continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) generally used to remove fluid from fluid overloaded patients with acute kidney failure. During SCUF blood is continuously removed from the body, passed ...
Hemofiltration is sometimes used in combination with hemodialysis, when it is termed hemodiafiltration. Blood is pumped through the blood compartment of a high flux dialyzer, and a high rate of ultrafiltration is used, so there is a high rate of movement of water and solutes from blood to dialysate that must be replaced by substitution fluid that is infused directly into the blood line.

As other research has been conducted, it has been argued that using an ultrafiltration pump may not be the best pump for the WAK. For example, research has found that by using a peristaltic pump instead, would allow a person to know their blood flow rate without having a sensor, which is needed in an ultrafiltration pump used in the experiment ...
[3] Glucose is the most commonly used osmotic agent and different concentrations of glucose in the dialysis fluid affect the ultrafiltration. Icodextrin is a high molecular weight glucose polymer developed as an alternative osmotic agent with slower absorbtion from the peritoneal cavity, facilitating better ultrafiltration. It is recommended ...
From March 2008 to April 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Eduardo Castro-Wright joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a -38.5 percent return on your investment, compared to a 3.1 percent return from the S&P 500.
In search of a Valentine, I asked men throughout the country to apply for a once-in-a-lifetime date in New York City. Here's how it went.
Ultrafiltration (UF) is a variety of membrane filtration in which forces such as pressure or concentration gradients lead to a separation through a semipermeable membrane. Suspended solids and solutes of high molecular weight are retained in the so-called retentate, while water and low molecular weight solutes pass through the membrane in the ...
