12 Weeks of Hemodialysis With Medium Cut-Off Filter Compared to Hemodiafiltration With Standard High-flux Filter.

April 14, 2020 updated by: Region Skane

The medium cut-off dialysis (MCO) membrane has been developed to improve middle molecule removal compared to standard high-flux dialysis filters.

The aim of this study is to compare levels of middle molecules after 12 weeks of MCO hemodialysis, compared to 12 weeks of hemodiafiltration using standard high-flux filter.
