Background Ultrafiltration is a method used to achieve diuresis in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) when there is diuretic resistance, but its efficacy in other settings is unclear. We therefore conducted a systematic review and meta-analysi... Read More about Ultrafiltration for acute decompensated cardiac failure: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Longitudinal bioimpedance vector plots add little value to fluid management of peritoneal dialysis patients (2016)

Bioimpedance (BI) has the potential to enable better management of fluid balance, which can worsen over time on peritoneal dialysis (PD) due to loss of residual kidney function and progressive muscle wasting. We undertook a prospective, randomized, o... Read More about Longitudinal bioimpedance vector plots add little value to fluid management of peritoneal dialysis patients.
