Primary

Measure	Time frame
Current primary outcome measure as of 03/05/2022: Quality of the subsequent treatments measured using the statistical difference between the following parameters: 1. Values of laboratory tests including bone densitometry which are taken routinely according to the protocol in force before and after dialysis treatment 2. Dialysis readings that are taken routinely and are available in the dialysis machine including clock time, weight, blood pressure, pulse rate, dialysance clearance, ultrafiltration rate, arterial and venous pressure of the dialysis machine, and transmembrane pressure before and after each dialysis session; and blood flow rate, ultrafiltration achieved, and clotting in the dialyzer and venous chamber after rinsing with 300 ml NaCl 0,9% solution at the end of each dialysis session. Red colouring is scored by visual inspection by the nurse. Scoring is as follows: 0 no red fibers, 1 is less than 10% of fibers are red, 2 is more than 10% but less than 50% of fibers are red, 3 is more than 50% of fibers are red. 3. Dose of relevant medications used (relevant medication includes all medication with an effect on Ca- and Mg-balance, anticoagulation, erythropoietin, and iron suppletion) extracted from the hospital information system (HiX) by the Company Information Centre (BIC) before and after dialysis treatment 4. Number of blood transfusions given measured using details of blood transfusions which are registered in the hospital system Diamant at the time of transfusion Current primary outcome measure as of 28/04/2022: The quality of the subsequent treatments measured using the statistical difference between following parameters before, during and after dialysis: 1. Values of laboratory tests which are taken routinely 2. Dialysis readings that are taken routinely like clock time, weight, blood pressure, pulse rate, dialysance clearance, ultrafiltration rate, arterial and venous pressure of the dialysis machine, transmembrane pressure, blood flow rate, ultraf	—
