Abstract
In our Department of Surgery, longterm intermittend hemodialysis has evolved for chronic renal failure as well as in our country for these few years.
I intend to explore factors which contributed to prolonging the median survival of patient with chronic renal failure. Studies performed to examine hemodialysis for twentynine patients with chronic renal failure, from January 1968 to December 1973, and parted them, shorter survival group (died within three months after first hemodialysis), longer survival group (lived more than six months after first hemondialysis), compared them about chemical analysis of blood and circulatory dynamics respectively.
Our data demonstrated that adequate intake and output of fluid was significant factor for prolonging the median survival of them.
Therefore, considering administration of fluid, I confirm that a program of hemodialysis for them should be kept their cardiothoracio ratio under 55%.
