3 HD or HDF? More than 2 ml patients treated with hemodialysis worldwide Survival probability of ESRD on maintenance dialysis: - 81% at 1 year - 68% at 2 years - 39% at 5 years Data suggest that increasing urea clearance does not improve survival and survival depends also on middle-molecules clearance References ERA-EDTA-Registry.

12 How can dialysis membrane modulate convective clearance (sobstitution volume + ultrafiltration) Dawn of hemodialysis ü 1914 canine dialysis membrane: colloidon + sodium salicylate; dialyser 40 cm diamter 8 mm ü 1943 human dialysis cellophane (low PERMEABILITY) ü 1956 development of cellulose dissolved in cuprammonium (Cuprophan) and regenerated cellulosic membranes (cast from cellulose or cotton fibers). These membrane were more permeable than dry cellulose membranes but extremely fragile (blood leakage) ü 1956 disposable coil dialyser become available ü 1960s Chemical modification to RCs to improve BIOCOMPATIBILITY (replacing of hydroxyl group(s) with acetate group(s)): cellulose acetate, cellulose diacetate and cellulose triacetate ü 1967 first cellulosic HOLLOW FIBER membrane was developed (compact with large surface area) ü 1969 first polymeric membrane was developed: acrylonitrile (AN-69). This was also the first dialyzer sterilized by the GAMMA-RAY irradiation (strong absorption characteristics still in use for AKI) ü 1980 first hollow synthetic fiber membrane: polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) sterilized by the gamma-ray irradiation ü 1980s To improve SOLUTE AND HYDRAULIC PERMEABILITY as well as biocompatibility many synthetic polymeric membranes have been introduced: polysulfone (PSf) and the like polyethersulfone (PES), polyaryletherrsulphone (PAES) all derived by petroleum

14 Types of membranes Updates in Hemodialysis, edited by Hiromichi Suzuki, ISBN , Published: September 9, 2015 Hydrophylic nature Biocompatibility (replacing of hydroxyl group(s) with acetate group(s)) Hydrophobic in nature (originated from petroleum) Biocompatibility: blood coagulation PVP to increase hydrophilicity

15 Types of membranes Updates in Hemodialysis, edited by Hiromichi Suzuki, ISBN , Published: September 9, 2015 Cellulosic and synthetic membranes: Negatively charged syndrome (negatively charged membranes such AN69): induces factor XII activation bradickinin activation. Addition of positively charged substances (i.e DEAE or vitamin E) Cellulosic membranes: Transient leukopenia (occurs minutes after starting the treatment; due to complement activation and leukocytes accumulation in the blood vessels and in the lung) substitution of hydroxyl groups with acetate groups increases biocompatibility and permeability to solutes and water transport Synthetic membranes: Hydrophobic membrane induce coagulation activation: addition of substances such as Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) to reduce blood clotting Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) intollerance: added to hydrophobic membranes to increase hydrophilicity but may induce C3a and complement activation

16 Types of membranes: homogeneous vs asymmetry membranes Updates in Hemodialysis, edited by Hiromichi Suzuki, ISBN , Published: September 9, 2015 Homogeneous membrane: Asymmetric membrane: Dense membrane Entire thickness contribute to the transport resistance for solutes Dense thin layer on inner surface (skin layer) from which density is gradually decreasing in radial direction Thickness about 15 mcm (EVAL, PMMA, AN-69 and most cellulosic membranes) Skin layer contribute to the transport resistance for solutes High mechanical strength and little solutes resistance Thickness about 35 mcm (thickness skin layer mcm) (most synthetic membranes)

17 Types of membranes: homogeneous vs asymmetry membranes Updates in Hemodialysis, edited by Hiromichi Suzuki, ISBN , Published: September 9, 2015 Pores of the membrane Same porosity, however membrane B has almost 2 times higher solute permeability than membrane A Chemical characteristic determines the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of the material, whereas physical structure determines the pore sizes as well as the thickness that contributes to the transport resistance. Therefore, both chemical and physical features are important for designing dialysis membrane.
