Hemodiafiltration in renal failure reduces the risk of death by 23% compared to hemodialysis
Last Friday, the results of the CONVINCE trial were published in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine. We are thrilled to announce that the CONVINCE study has shown that the use of high-dose hemodiafiltration led to a remarkable 23% lower risk of death from any cause compared to high-flux hemodialysis in patients with kidney failure resulting in kidney-replacement therapy. These results are important for nephrologists around the globe and might impact how patients are treated.
We want to express our deepest gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of this project. Our team at Julius Clinical had the incredible opportunity to participate in the CONVINCE trial, and it has been an honor to play a role in this important research. We are immensely proud of our dedicated and talented team members who worked tirelessly to support this trial and help advance medical knowledge.
