Описание к видео Research Spotlight | Ariella Mermelstein, MA | Ultrafiltration rate levels in hemodialysis patients

In this #ResearchSpotlight, the Renal Research Institute features Ariella Mermelstein, who joined RRI as a data analyst in 2020, while completing her master’s degree in mathematics from the Katz School at Yeshiva University.

It is well established that high ultrafiltration rates during hemodialysis are associated with a higher risk of mortality. In this study, Ariella and her colleagues postulated that patients with a heavier weight may experience a disadvantage, as the scaled ultrafiltration rate may allow for a higher absolute rate of excess fluid removal.
