PY - 2021 T2 - Handbook of Home Hemodialysis AB - Home hemodialysis (HHD) and more frequent (or intensive) HHD have several advantages over thrice-weekly in-center hemodialysis (conventional hemodialysis [CHD]).1 Certain patient populations have specific medical indications for intensive hemodialysis (HD) dosing (>12 hours of HD per week), and HHD provides the flexibility to tailor the HD prescription to the patient's needs. The aim of this chapter is to discuss specific patient populations that may benefit from more intense HD at home.
