Titolo	Changing emphasis in modern hemodialysis therapies: Cost-effectiveness of delivering higer doses of dialysis
Autore	J. Kult, E. Stapf
Referenza	Int J Artif Organs 2007; 30 (7): 577-582
Contenuto	This paper describes the clinical experience of a therapy concept involving advanced functions of a new dialysis machine system (5008 Therapy System, Fresenius Medical Care, Bad Homburg Germany) that is able to provide adequate Kt/V for patients, while consuming lower amounts of dialysate, water and energy during the treatment. The novel ?AutoFlow? function of this therapy system adjusts automatically the dialysate flow rate according to the effective blood flow rate of the individual patient without compromising the dose of dialysis the patient receives. The new therapy system of Fresenius Medical Care enables a more widespread application of advanced convective treatment modalities in a more affordable manner.
