The guidelines also recommended dialysis initiation at an average urea and creatinine clearance of 6 ml/min/1.73 m2, regardless of symptomatology. The 2006 US National Kidney Foundation guidelines recommended dialysis initiation at eGFR <15 ml/min/1.73 m2.
Patients needed about 15 percent less insulin overall on days after dialysis than they did on days before treatments. The background (or âbasalâ) insulin they needed dropped by about 25 percent, but the insulin they needed to handle meals (âbolus insulinâ) did not change. This study involved only 10 patients.
