Abstract
Unipuncture hemofiltration using the double headed pump (Bellco BL 760) was performed in a patient who acted as her own control for 10 sessions with a 1.0 mβ AN69 membrane (group A), 10 sessions with a 1.4 mβ AN69 membrane (group B) and 10 sessions with a 1.0 mβ AN69 membrane Filtral (group C). A two needle standard hemofiltration technique (Hemoprocessor Sartorius) was used in this patient for 10 sessions with a 1.0 mβ AN69 membrane (group D). To obtain the same amount of ultrafiltration fluid the filtration time was respectively 266, 196, 214 and 260 minutes in groups A, B, C and D.
