🩺 Standard Kt/V (Leypoldt)

UseWhen to use: comparing thrice-weekly vs more frequent HD adequacy on a weekly scale.

Loading calculator…

StrataWeekly stdKt/V targets (often ≥2.0) are guideline-dependent; residual function still matters.

LimitsWhen not to use: ignoring residual KRU. · Pitfall: mixing spKt/V with eKt/V inputs. · UF not fully modeled.

Clinical takeaway

Daugirdas eKt/V → Leypoldt stdKt/V.

When to use

When to use: comparing thrice-weekly vs more frequent HD adequacy on a weekly scale.

How it works

eKt/V = spKt/V − (0.6×spKt/V)/t + 0.03; then Leypoldt stdKt/V.

Key points

  • Daugirdas eKt/V → Leypoldt stdKt/V.
  • Weekly comparison.
  • Next: KRU / UFR.

Worked calculation

The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.
