[Quantification of treatment time in the high-efficiency dialysis method].

Precise quantification of treatment time is allowed by using the urea kinetic models for dialytic therapy prescription: the dialytic dose may be expressed by the KT/V ratio, the nutritional status by PCR. Due to dialysis disequilibrium urea extraction was significantly lower in high efficiency dialysis than in traditional schedules, suggesting to increase the KT/V value when treatment time is reduced. The comparison of KT/V and PCR values obtained by the Gotch model (single pool variable volume) with the results derived by the diagram of Keshaviah has shown significant correlation for both, confirming the usefulness of this simplified model in clinical practice.

[Acute renal failure and multiple trauma].

Only recently the relationship between trauma and acute renal failure has been described on a rational basis. Shock is commonly a major pathogenetic factor in tubulo-interstitial damage often associated with other causes, such as toxic agents, toxins, immunologic and coagulation mechanisms. The Authors consider the various patterns of acute renal failure such as the "functional, tubulo-interstitial, cortical necrosis" and analyze the different etiopathogenesis. Finally they report the mortality rate of acute renal failure in S. Giovanni Hospital of Turin from 1969 to 1979.
