Method of measurement of delivered dose of <strong>haemodialysis</strong><br />
The delivered dose of <strong>haemodialysis</strong> in adult and paediatric patients should be measured using<br />
formal urea kinetic modelling, employing the single-pool, variable volume model. Other methods<br />
include URR (urea reduction ratio), natural log Kt/V and the Daugirdas second-generation<br />
formula<br />
Formal urea kinetic modelling provides a quantitative method for developing a treatment for<br />
<br />
to compute Kt/V using formal UKM.<br />
Various websites offer free formula for calculation of Kt/V:<br />
