Haemodialysis Monitors and Monitoring

  • Chapter
Replacement of Renal Function by Dialysis

Abstract

The world-wide acceptance of haemodialysis as a long term means of achieving survival for patients with end stage renal failure may have obscured the inherent danger of this technique to the patient. The technique evolved rapidly from the intensive care unit with continuous nursing and medical observation of the patients in 1960(1), to the patient’s own home, where unattended overnight haemodialysis was first performed in 1964 with a passive flow system and without the use of a blood pump (2). The universal preference for the arteriovenous (A-V) fistula (3) and its implied use of a blood pump, the use of more efficient dialysers(4) together with the requirement that the patient accepts more responsibility for his own treatment (5), have placed an even greater emphasis on the need for adequate equipment and monitoring.
