[Clinical experiences with Nepross C-02 dialyzer].

During 50 haemodialyses procedures with the Nephross C-02 coil dialyzer in a RSP-system clearance, effectivity and ultrafiltration were investigated. With a blood flow of 200 ml per minute clearance for urea, creatinine and uric acid were 88.3, 76.1 and 69.9 ml per minute respectively. Considering these results, our findings 2 hours after starting dialysis must be taken into account that clearance values measured in the recirculation-single pass-system (RSP) are about 30% lower than the results with the use of the single pass-system. The maximal ultrafiltration rate was 600 ml per hour. Overhydration therefore, is the main indication for the use of the Nephross C-02 coil dialyzer.
