- 血液透析は末期腎疾患(ESRD)患者にとって不可欠ですが、従来の膜は主要な毒素をほとんど除去できません。
- 既存の膜は、治療の有効性と安全性を制限する、有害な免疫および凝固反応を引き起こします。
- タンパク質結合性尿毒症性毒素(PBUT)および中分子量毒素は、炎症および心血管系の問題に寄与します。
研究 の 目的:
- 現在の血液透析膜技術とその限界を批判的に評価すること。
- 次世代の透析膜のための先進材料と戦略を探求すること。
- 毒素除去と血液適合性の向上のために、輸送理論と材料科学を橋渡しすること。
主な方法:
- ポリマー、無機、生体模倣、および混合マトリックス膜システムの体系的な分析。
- 性能に対する構造、表面化学、およびナノ構造の影響の評価。
- 両性イオンコーティング、ナノマテリアル、およびAI駆動設計などの新興戦略の評価。
主要な成果:
- 現在の膜は、重要な中分子量およびタンパク質結合性尿毒症性毒素の除去には不十分です。
- 先進材料は、毒素選択性、生体安定性、および血液適合性を向上させます。

Dialysis
1.1K
Renal failure occurs when the kidneys lose their ability to filter waste products from the blood effectively. It can be classified into two types: acute renal failure (ARF) and chronic renal failure (CRF).
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...

Dialysis
1.6K
Dialysis is a diffusion-based purification process that separates analyte molecules from a complex matrix. This is accomplished by allowing molecules in the solution to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a liquid on the other side. The membrane is usually made of cellulose acetate or cellulose nitrate, and the second liquid must be miscible with the solution. Ions (e.g., chloride or sodium) or organic molecules (e.g., glucose) can pass through the membrane pores, which generally have...

Hemodialysis I: Introduction
1.2K
Hemodialysis (HD) is a medical treatment that artificially removes waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys are no longer able to perform these functions effectively. In this process, blood is filtered through a semipermeable membrane, allowing for the selective removal of waste while preserving necessary components like blood cells and proteins. Hemodialysis is typically performed in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or severe kidney...

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) requires a collaborative healthcare approach to restore renal function and prevent complications. Essential management strategies involve monitoring fluid and electrolyte balance, adjusting medications, initiating dialysis when necessary, and providing nutritional support.Fluid and Electrolyte ManagementFluid Monitoring: Regularly monitoring body weight, central venous pressure, and urine output helps detect fluid imbalances early. Patient intake and output are...

Hemodialysis II: Procedure and Complications

DialyzersA hemodialysis (HD) dialyzer is a plastic cartridge containing thousands of parallel hollow fibers, which serve as semipermeable membranes. These fibers are typically made from cellulose-based or other synthetic materials. During HD, blood is pumped into the top of the cartridge and distributed among these fibers. Simultaneously, dialysis fluid, known as dialysate, is introduced into the bottom of the cartridge, bathing the outside of the fibers. Across the semipermeable membrane,...

Chronic Kidney Disease III: Interprofessional Care

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) requires collaborative and comprehensive management. CKD progresses through stages and can lead to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) if untreated. Interprofessional collaboration and patient education are crucial, enabling patients to manage their health and improve their quality of life.Diagnostic approach for chronic kidney diseaseThe diagnosis of CKD primarily focuses on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which assesses kidney function by measuring how well...
