blood tubing related recirculation

Blood tubing related recirculation occurs in single-needle (SN) dialysis.

  • There is always the withdrawal phase (arterial phase) and return phase (venous phase) with the help of a blood pump in standard hemodialysis, where there is no possibility to mix the dialyzed and non-dialyzed blood in the tubing system.
  • But in SN dialysis, on the other hand, only one cannula is used.
  • Therefore, the chance of mixing blood is certainly there.
