| Summary: | ABSTRACT: Introdution: The high prevalence of chronic kidney disease has led to the development of renal function replacement techniques
as a treatment for individuals with the disease. Hemodialysis (HD) is the most commonly used method for the treatment of patients with the
disease. Even if it has improved a lot, the intercurrences during dialysis continue to be a reality. The literature is not consensual when it relates
the modalities of treatment and the benefits and harms associated with them. If on the one hand there is evidence that hemodiafiltration (HDF)
has fewer implications for patients than hemodialysis, others do not show significant differences when comparing the two treatment modalities.
Methods: A prospective, comparative, quasi-experimental study was developed over a period of 8 months to determine if there were differences
in the number of intercurrences and serum levels of calcium, albumin and hemoglobin observed in each treatment modality, HD versus HDF.
Results and discussion: The data obtained show that there are no statistically significant differences in the number of intercurrences and
serum levels of calcium, albumin and hemoglobin observed in each treatment modality. Conclusions: It was not possible to determine which of
the treatment modalities is associated with major/minor intradialytic intercurrences or serum levels of hemoglobin, calcium and albumin. |
