Brief summary

The objective of the EQUODIA study is to evaluate the hemodynamic stability of hemodialysis with low dialysate flow in patients requiring emergency hemodialysis in the context of acute kidney injury or unscheduled end-stage renal disease, not in intensive care, compared to conventional triweekly high-flow hemodialysis. Short daily hemodialysis has excellent hemodynamic tolerance, which has already been confirmed by clinical experience. This modality, commonly used in the patient's home through new machines allowing a low dialysate flow purification technique, can prove to be an innovative, effective and safe alternative for patients admitted for hemodialysis in an unscheduled situation (acute kidney injury, unscheduled end-stage renal disease not followed). Up to now, no studies have evaluated the use of short daily hemodialysis with low dialysate flow in patients with acute kidney injury or unscheduled end-stage renal disease, requiring the initiation of emergency extra-renal purification.
