ABSTRACT: Background
The purpose of the study was to explore the precision of an equation designed to estimate residual kidney urea clearance (KRU) from interdialytic urine collection data and pre-hemodialysis (HD) serum urea nitrogen (SUN) in different hemodialysis treatment schedules.Methods
The generalizability of the proposed equation was tested in 32?731 HD treatments where urine was collected prior to a dialysis session, mostly for 24?h but sometimes longer, in patients being dialyzed 1-4 times/week.Results
The residual kidney urea clearance estimating equation predicted a KRU that matched the one computed by formal modeling within 5% in?>98% of sessions analyzed. The errors in estimated versus modeled KRU for interdialytic intervals (IDIs) of 2, 3, 4 and 7 days, were 1.6?±?1.5%, -0.4?±?1.6%, 0.9?±?1.6%, and 1.5?±?1.2%, respectively. Percent errors were similar for schedules of 1-4/week with the exception of urine collection during the 2-day interval of a 2:5-day twice-weekly schedule; here error averaged 5.0?±?1.2%. Use of the average of the SUN values at the start and end of the collection period overestimated modeled KRU by 11.3?±?4.5%, whereas an equation suggested by others underestimated modeled KRU by?-9.9?±?3.4%.Conclusions
The equation tested predicts values for KRU that are similar to those obtained from formal urea kinetic modeling, with percent errors that only rarely exceed 5%. It gives relatively precise results for a wide range of HD treatment schedules, IDIs and urine collection periods.Keywords
