Hemodialysis Monitors and Monitoring

  • Chapter
Replacement of Renal Function by Dialysis

Abstract

Worldwide acceptance of hemodialysis for achieving long-term survival of patients with end stage renal failure may have obscured the inherent danger of this technique to the patient. The technique evolved rapidly from the intensive care unit with continuous nurse/doctor observation of the patients in 1960 (1), to the patient’s own home, where unattended overnight hemodialysis was first performed in 1964 with a passive flow system and without the use of a blood pump (2). The universal preference for the arteriovenous (A-V) fistula (3) with its implied use of a blood pump, and the use of more efficient dialyzers together with the requirement that the patient accepts more responsibility for his own treatment (4, 5), have placed even greater emphasis on the need for adequate equipment and monitoring.
