A First Evaluation of OMNI®, A New Device for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy.

abstract：:Hypertension is present in most patients with end-stage renal disease and likely contributes to the premature cardiovascular disease in dialysis patients. Previous practice guidelines have recommended that, in patients on chronic dialysis, blood pressure (BP) should be reduced below 130/80 mm Hg. This is based on opin...
