Abstract

Reading the special report from Weiner et al1 advocating a “volume first” approach for improving clinical outcomes among hemodialysis patients was a pleasure. However, we disagree with the part of this proposal that dialysate sodium concentrations (DNa) should be “set routinely in the range of 134-138 mEq/L.”1(p685)
