Abstract :
Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education:
Preserving residual kidney function (RKF) is an important goal among end-stage kidney
failure (ESKF) patients and it has been increasingly incriminated to be important in
maintaining fluid balance, removal of middle molecular uremic toxins, nutritional
condition and well-being of patients on dialysis. Therefore more attention should be focused
on preserving RRF even after patients are started on dialysis
