Department of Nephrology Hypertension, University of Berne, Berne, Switzerland
Artif Organs 33:634-40. 2009..Total costs for RRT in ICU patients with ARF were lower when treated with IHD than with CVVHDF, and have to be taken into account for the selection of the method of RRT in ARF on the ICU...- Glycyrrhetinic acid food supplementation lowers serum potassium concentration in chronic hemodialysis patientsStefan Farese
Department of Nephrology and Hypertension, Inselspital, University of Berne, Switzerland
Kidney Int 76:877-84. 2009..Although these studies show that prolonged GA supplementation persistently lowers serum potassium in dialysis patients, a long-term toxicity study will be mandatory before we recommend the routine use of this treatment... - Use of the pentasaccharide fondaparinux as an anticoagulant during haemodialysisRobert M Kalicki

Clin Pharmacokinet 41:59-69. 2002..The microemulsion formulation of cyclosporin (CsA-ME) has a less variable absorption profile than the standard formulation (CsA-S), but only limited information is available about once-daily administration of CsA-ME... - Medical futility: predicting outcome of intensive care unit patients by nurses and doctors--a prospective comparative studySonia Frick
