CURBELO RODRIGUEZ, Leonardo; MARCANO DIAZ, Amarilis y PEDROSO ALFONSO, Osmeida. Advantages of biosensors in haemodialysis. AMC [online]. 2014, vol.18, n.2, pp. 240-254. ISSN 1025-0255.
Background: technological advances in the fields of electronics and computer science have provided great improvements concerning safety and tolerance to haemodialysis. The incorporation of biosensors that inform about the progress of the haemodialysis session in real time has meant a significant innovation. Objective: to look in depth at the usefulness and principles of biosensors applied to current haemodialysis machines. Method: a review of researches published in nephrology journals, biomed.uninet, as-online.org, Scielo, books, other journals, and training manuals about the workings of haemodialysis machines, was made. Thirty-four scientific articles related to biosensors and the instructions for their use, were selected. Development: a review of the technological advances related to haemodialysis machines, the existing biosensors, the signals received by the sensor, the biological equivalent and the clinical signal they contribute with, was made. Conclusions: biosensors are monitors that, by means of physical-chemical signals obtained from the extracorporeal circuit of blood or of the dialysis bath, provide information of the effectiveness of the session of haemodialysis or of the changes that it produces in the organism of the patient.
