Hemodialysis treatment has been applied for chronic renal failure patients for more than 10 years. The composition of dialysate bas been changed a little for these 10 years but great changes of the dialysate composition could not done because of single dialysate compartment. It is necessary and useful for the advance of dialysis efficiency to increase compartments of dialysate and blood and to realize multi-compartments, multi-dialysate dialysis system.
As the first step towards multi—compartment dialysis we tried to add some substances such as bicarbonate, glucose, potassium and sodium to basic dialysate at just before dialyser. It is very easy to make bicarbonate dialysis in this adding system and dialysate composition is stable during dialysis and no precipitation.
Tis adding system is very useful and easy to realize high sodium dialysis, sodium gradient dialysis, high potassium dialysis, and low or high glucose dialysis.
