Table 2.

Clearance formulas

Solution clearance (mL/min) CLs = (CBi − CBo)/CBi × (QB − QF) + QF
Filtrate clearance (mL/min) CLf = CF/CBi × QF
Adsorption clearance (mL/min) CLad = CLs − CLf
Sieving coefficient SC = 2CF/(CBi + CBo)

C Bi inlet (pre-hemofilter) solute concentration, C Bo outlet (post-hemofilter) solute concentration, CF filtrate solute concentration, QB blood flow, QF filtration flow
