Patients performing chronic hemodialysis (HD) retain more or less water between dialyses. The water is removed by ultrafiltration and usually during the cleansing of waste products - the HD. The length of HD is usually the same as the time of fluid removal while sometimes this may differ. There is no clear guideline. In previous research the investigator noted that the heart releases more NT-pro-BNP during HD in numerous of the patients. The present study aims to clarify if the speed of fluid removal during HD is a factor that may alter the release of cardiac markers during HD. If so the recommendations for the prescription of HD can be updated.
