Can Bioimpedance Analysis Be Used to Estimate Absolute Blood Volume in Hemodialysis Patients?
In almost half of patients, blood volume can be inferred from bioimpedance data with sufficient certainty. But the greater the deviation from the physiological blood to extracellular volume ratio of 1-3, the more the calculated blood volumes differ from the measured values. For this reason, bioimpedance data should not be used uncritically to set the ultrafiltration.
