Daily hemodialysis, short daily and long nightly nocturnal dialysis are associated with remarkable improvements, both during and between dialysis and in the overall long-term quality of life.
Several dialysis-associated morbidities are favorably affected particularly regarding nutritional status, blood pressure, anemia, sleep apnea and cardiac status.
Daily and nocturnal hemodialysis improves clinical outcomes and patientÂ’s quality of life when compared with trice weekly conventional modality.
History is a poor predicator of the future because there are several indications that Daily Home Hemodialysis with five to six times a week therapy will dramatically reverse the dialysis trends practiced over the past 30 years. Clinical results reported with Daily Home Hemodialysis are difficult to dismiss as anything less than a radical improvement in patient well being and overall reduced ESRD cost.
