The equilibrated Kt/V (eKt/V), a clinical index of hemodialysis adequacy, can be calculated by several means. The commonly used methods are second generation of natural logarithm by Daugirdas and rate adjustment methods. However these two methods used immediate post-dialysis blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (C0). The authors investigated the accuracy of 30-minute post-dialysis BUN (C30), equilibrated BUN at the end of urea rebound time, to determine the eKt/V MATERIAL AND METHOD: We measured 7 values of eKt/V in 30 hemodialysis sessions by using the 5 following methods: 1). Empirical method (Emp) 2). Smye method (Sm) 3). Daugirdas method using C0 and C30 (Dau0, Dau30) 4). Rate adjustment method using C0 and C30 (Rate0, Rate30) 5). Double Pool urea kinetic model (DP), and compared with the gold standard values calculated by the modified Direct Dialysate Quantitative method (mDDQ).
