NCT00004285

Brief Summary

OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate whether hemodialysis providing a 2-pool, variable volume urea kinetic modelling value of 1.05 versus 1.45 reduces mortality and morbidity in patients with end stage renal disease. II. Compare the efficacy of high versus low flux dialyzer membranes.
