This remarkable ultrafilter membrane for dialysis represents a significant advancement, particularly in the field of dialyzers, the blood filtration device used in hemodialysis machines to remove ...
State‐of‐the‐art dialysis membranes comprise a relatively thick polymer layer with tortuous pores, and suffer from low rates of diffusion leading to extremely long process times (often several days) ...
Inside the machine the blood and dialysis fluid are separated by a partially permeable membrane the blood flows in the opposite direction to dialysis fluid, allowing exchange to occur between the ...
Hypersensitivity reactions during haemodialysis are well documented in the literature. Most dialysis membrane reactions occur with ethylene oxide or non-biocompatible membranes and less frequently ...
