Abstract
In the 27 years since maintenance hemodialysis was first introduced in Seattle, this treatment has been revolutionized. In 1960 maintenance hemodialysis for chronic renal failure was a 14-h experimental procedure, performed on a few highly selected patients by a team of physicians and other staff who were uncertain of the complications which might ensue, both during the dialysis and as a result of the prolongation of life by this new treatment. Now there are more than 300,000 patients treated by maintenance dialysis throughout the world, and almost all of them have their treatment supervised by nurses or by technicians. There are also thousands of patients who perform their own hemodialysis treatment at home.
