Analytical Solution of Multicompartment Solute Kinetics for Hemodialysis

Figure 2

Time course of solute concentrations (urea (a); creatinine (b)) in the four compartments during hemodialysis and during a 100 min postdialytic phase using model parameters from Table 1. Notice that extra- and intracellular concentrations are superimposed in case of urea (a) and separated in case of creatinine (b). : low-flow intracellular; : low-flow extracellular; : high-flow intracellular; : high-flow extracellular; : equilibrated over throughout all compartments.
