The Interdialytic Creatinine Rise is a novel marker of volume overload and mortality risk in hemodialysis patients
Abstract Background Volume overload poses a major risk in hemodialysis patients but simple detection methods are lacking. We propose a novel marker, the Interdialytic Creatinine Rise (IDCR), readily calculated as the change in serum creatinine over time (in mg/dL/h), to assess volume overload and pr...
