Pilot study compares blood volume monitoring with bioimpedance spectroscopy for fluid volume assessment in dialysis patients, indicating potential utility.
BACKGROUND: based on blood volume monitoring data. METHODS: measured immediately after the same dialysis session. The correlation and agreement between the two methods were evaluated. RESULTS: ; r = 0.046). DISCUSSION: include the assumption of isotonicity during dialysis and variability in the f-cell ratio. CONCLUSION: demonstrated a significant correlation with bioimpedance spectroscopy-derived values and may serve as a useful tool for volume assessment in dialysis patients. However, further validation is needed before it can be considered a substitute for bioimpedance spectroscopy as a standard method.
