Effect of Modifying Magnesium Concentration in Citrate-enriched Dialysate on Serum Magnesium Levels

Kurzzusammenfassung

Individuals with ESKD and treated with hemodialysis have a high mortality risk. Associative studies suggest a relationship between serum magnesium concentration and mortality risk. The influence of magnesium concentration on mortality risk is unknown. This pilot study will explore whether altering dialysate magnesium concentration in the presence of citrate will change serum magnesium concentrations.
