Hemodialysis (HD)
Ultrafiltration (UF)
Continuous Veno-Venous hemofiltration
(CVVH)
Peritoneal Dialysis
Hemodialysis
Semipermeable membrane
 Solute removal via passive diffusion

◦ Inversely proportional to the size (ie effective
removal of K, urea, C; not of PO4)
Ultrafiltration
use of hydrostatic pressure gradient to
induce convection (filtration of water)
 solvent drag (pulls dissolved solutes)
across
 removal of excess fluid

CVVH
highly permeable membrane
 fluid and solute removal via ultrafiltration
 filtrate is discarded
 replacement fluid is infused similar to
plasma (but no K, urea, Cr, PO4)
 used in ICU, runs 12-24h, through double
lumen catheter
 less drastic fluid shifts

Peritoneal Dialysis
peritoneal
membrane =
partially permeable
membrane
 dextrose dialysate
 diffusion and
osmosis until
equilibrium
 3-10 dwells per
night with 2-2.5 L
per dwell

Indications for Dialysis
Acidosis
 Electrolytes
 Ingestions
 Overload
 Uremia

Access
Arteriovenous fistula (AVF)
 Graft
 Tunneled catheter

Arteriovenous Fistula
◦ Highest patency
◦ Lowest risk of infection
◦ Low risk of thrombus
◦ Maturation time (3-4mo)
◦ Steal syndrome (poor
blood supply to the rest
of the limb)
◦ Aneurysm formation
Arteriovenous Graft






Easier to create
Maturation time 3-6
weeks
Poor patency (often
requires thrombectomy
or angioplasty)
Infection
Aneurysms
Steal syndrome
Tunneled Catheter
Immediate use
 Bridge to AVF/AVG

Poor flow (decreased
HD efficiency)
 High infection risk
 Venous stenosis
 Thrombosis

Dialysis Rx:
Time: 2-5 hours
 Bath
 Blood flow rate: 400-450cc/min
 Dialysate flow rate: 500-800cc/min
 Anticoagulant
 Additives:

◦ Anemia (EPO, blood)
◦ Bone metabolism (vit D, calcitriol, etc)
◦ Meds (antibiotics)
Dialysate Bath
Common Admissions on Eckel

Complications of missed HD
◦ SOB from fluid overload
◦ HTN crisis
◦ Hyperkalemia
Line infections
 Access issues
 And everything else…

Eckel Pearls: presentation
75 yo AAM with ESRD 2/2 DM (HD MWF
via RUE AVF, at CDC East, nephrologist
Dr. Wish, dry weight 82kg, oligouric)
Eckel Pearls: history
how did the last HD session go?
 complications since being started on HD?

◦ infections?
◦ multiple access points?
medically compliant?
 get run sheets from dialysis center

Eckel Pearls: physical exam
Vitals: no BP in the arm of the access
 Volume status
 Access:

◦ Infection?
◦ Aneurysms
◦ Bruits/thrills


RN LK50: OMG’s K is 3.1. Can we
replete?
•Had dialysis 3rd shift. Finished 2hrs ago
Labs in ESRD
Get labs before or 4h after HD
 Only the H/H is accurate
 Floor RNs can’t use HD lines
 Can ask to have cultures drawn at HD
from the line

Page 2

RN LK20: New admit AMS on floor. Hard to
arouse. Please eval
ED presentation with abd pain
 Workup initiated since there are no beds…
 Pain meds: morphine 1mg, then 1mg, then 2
mg, then 3mg IVP
 Sent to the floor

Medications in ESRD

Antibiotics
◦ Renally dose
◦ Loading dose, then maintenance dose
No lovenox dvt ppx, use heparin
 No morphine

◦ Hepatic metabolism – but active metabolites
◦ Limit the other opioids
 Dilaudid: hepatic metabolism – but metabolites can
cause neuroexcitiation

constipation/GERD : avoid
magnesium/phosphate containing agents
Page 3

RN: new admit OK. Called wound care for
leg.

After lunch you walk on over to the patient
room. ESRD admitted for access.
OK is doing ok. Vitals stable. Comfortable.

Calciphylaxis
Calcinosis cutis
Page 4

RN LK20: Code white, WAA is hypoxic, 83% on
RA. Now 92% on VM.
Acutely SOB. Looks uncomfortable.
Your co-NF points that one leg is bigger than the
other.
 You ask, “have you had a blood clot before?”
 WAA nods yes.
 Hmmm….amongst other things, CTPE?


Imaging in CKD
Avoid contrast in CKD patients
 If you have to, prep

◦ volume expansion: isotonic IVFs
 3 cc/kg x 1h before
 1cc/kg x 6h after
◦ ? alkalinization: sodium bicarbonate
◦ ? acetylcysteine
◦ radiology can give you the protocol

(treat empirically)
Imaging in ESRD
CT with contrast is ok
 MRI with gadolinium is NOT:

◦ Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF)
◦ IF you must: HD x 3 over 3 consecutive days,
with the first right after
Page 5

RN LK20: Lost access on GRR. Can you
order a PICC?
Finally, an easy question.
 CKD. Sure, why not?

Access in CKD
Avoid PICC/midlines in CKD stage 4-5
 Try to preserve access
 Try for the feet/EJ
 But if you need to, order a midline


PCP should refer CKD stage IV to
nephrologists in anticipation of HD
Don’t treat them lightly
The end.
