Objectives: |
The objectives of the course are to increase the participants knowledge about: |
1) Theoretical basis for kinetic modeling of urea, sodium and fluid transport in dialysis;
|
2) Potentials and limitations of tools for assessing dialysis adequacy such as KT/V; .
|
3) How to use these quantitative tools to analyze clinical problems in the patients; |
4) How to use these tools for dialysis research. |
