Background
The ideal modality choice and dialysis prescription during the first renal replacement therapy (RRT) session remains controversial. We conducted a pilot study to determine the safety risk for hemodialysis versus hemofiltration and its relationship with neurocognitive assessment on incident RRT patients.
Methods
Twenty-four incident RRT patients were included. Patients were randomized the conventional HD group or the post-dilution HF group. MMSE and MOCA tests were applied in all patients before and after RRT and brain MRI was performed in 7 patients from each group before and after the intervention.
Results
Baseline characteristics were similar between groups. Compared to conventional HD, post-dilution HF had longer treatment time and blood volume. There were no significant changes in blood pressure after RRT in both groups. The MMSE test showed no significant differences between groups or within groups. The MOCA test showed an increase in the total score for the post dilution HF group with no significant changes between groups. The magnetic resonance image (MRI) evaluation showed no differences between or within groups.
Conclusion
Post-dilution hemofiltration is a safe alternative for the first hemodialysis session in incidence RRT; it allows longer treatment time if ultrafiltration is required has a similar neurological risk than conventional HD.
