Influence of Colloid-Osmotic Pressure on the Filtration Rate During Continuous Arteriovenous Hemofiltration

  • Chapter
Arteriovenous Hemofiltration

Abstract

In contrast to pump-actuated hemofiltration, where a transmembrane pressure gradient of several 100 mmHg maintains the process of filtration [1], arteriovenous hemofiltration is a low-pressure process in which the colloid-osmotic pressure has a significant effect on the filtration rate, as it does in the capillary loops of the glomeruli
