Abstract
Four cases of acute or acute-on-chronic kidney injury were referred for hemodialysis therapy. All cases had a history of uremic syndrome including refractory vomiting, anorexia, diarrhea and depression. They already had been treated with conventional therapies but the intractable clinical signs were remained without response of medications. Intermittent hemodialysis (IHD) sessions were executed in four cases. This study describes the clinical signs and biochemical features of four hemodialysis patients with dialysis adequacy indexed by Kt/V. This report introduced the estimation of hemodialysis adequacy method with clinical cases for establishment of standardization of hemodialysis therapy assess in dogs.
