Furthermore, we summarize this data to compile guidelines for best
practice.
Methods: A systematic search of all relevant studies and abstracts
was conducted using several electronic databasesby utilizing
appropriate key words by an expert hospital librarian. Eligible
studies included children aged 1-20 years with acute or chronic
indications for hemodialysis. Studies prior to Jan 1990 or on
continuous renal replacement therapy, peritoneal dialysis, modified
forms of hemodialysis (nocturnal, hemodiafiltration, etc.) were
excluded. In addition, studies that were non-English or involved <
5 patients were excluded. Titles and abstracts were screened by two
independent reviewers, followed by a full text review of included
articles. Data on HD indications, specific parameters of the HD
protocol, including dialysate composition, dialysate flow, blood flow,
urea reduction rate and ultrafiltration goals were collected. We also
collected data regarding medications, anticoagulation and blood
transfusions required along with outcomes such as mortality and
kidney transplantation.
Results: Preliminary results of this systematic search returned a total
number of 16,196 papers. After screening for relevant titles and
abstracts, and exclusion based on criteria defined above, a total of
102 papers remained. Further assessment of full text of articles led
to inclusion of 55 papers in this review. Results showed that
