What are the clinical outcomes of home hemodialysis versus in center hemodialysis?
One retrospective cohort study showed that patients receiving “intensive” dialysis (five to seven sessions per week) compared with patients receiving in-center hemodialysis (three treatments per week) showed a strong association with improved survival.
During the 4-year follow-up period 13% of the intensive HHD group died, compared with 21% of the conventional in-center dialysis group.
