यह माप कि डायलिसिस अपशिष्ट को कितनी अच्छी तरह साफ करता है — Kt/V ≥ 1.2 (हेमोडायलिसिस) के लक्ष्य के साथ। अपर्याप्त डायलिसिस यूरीमिया, कुपोषण और मृत्यु दर का कारण बनता है।
Adequacy targets: spKt/V ≥ 1.2 for HD (URR ≥ 65%), weekly Kt/V ≥ 1.7 for CAPD. Underdialysis causes uremia, malnutrition, and mortality. Factors reducing adequacy: access recirculation, shortened sessions, low blood flow, dialyzer clotting. Monthly adequacy testing drives prescription changes.
