The Evolution of Home HD - Meeting Modern Patient Needs
Abstract:
Patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing conventional renal replacement therapy face high morbidities and inappropriately high mortality rates globally. Intensive home hemodialysis has emerged as an alternate form of renal replacement therapy with superior clinical outcomes. In order to describe the international trends in conducting home hemodialysis, we performed a cross-sectional survey of 25 centers reporting the global trends and practices of intensive home hemodialysis. While the practice of home hemodialysis has continued to evolve, similar logistical barriers exist around the world. The Global Forum for Home Hemodialysis was created to provide a user-centric manual to facilitate the delivery of this important mode of renal replacement therapy.

Acute kidney injury develops suddenly and can be caused by pre-renal causes (e.g., hypovolemia, shock), intrinsic renal causes (e.g., acute tubular necrosis), or post-renal causes (e.g., urinary obstruction). In contrast, chronic renal failure progresses gradually over time and is often...
