How Many Patients Have Tried Nocturnal Hemodialysis?
Almost 40 patients have been trained to take part in the Toronto project and the Ontario provincial government has authorized funds to almost double the number of participants. As of September 1999, a total of 830 months of patient experience had been documented. One of the first patients to participate has dialyzed almost every night for the last 5 years, choosing not to take the normal one night a week off. To this day, he is gainfully employed and has had no major medical problems.
