Measurement of transcellular fluid shift during haemodialysis. Part 2. In vitro and clinical evaluation
Abstract
A method to measure intra- and extracellular conductivity is evaluated. In vitro experiments show that these two variables can be measured separately. The conductivity appears to depend on the concentration and fluid volume of the compartment concerned. In vitro variation of the intracellular volume of blood by dilution and by shrinking and swelling of blood cells is detectable by this method. In vivo too the method seems to detect intra- and extracellular fluid volumes separately. The course of these two variables during different strategies of haemodialysis is determined.
