R.L. is a 54-year-old male with chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stage 5 secondary to type II diabetes mellitus. He had four-hour hemodialysis treatments three times a week. Intradialytic hypotension was an ongoing problem. Due to this, R.L. had a physician's standing order for a maximum ultrafiltration (UF) goal of 3,000 mL, since he was "unable to tolerate" greater volume removal. His estimated dry weight (EDW) was 91.5 kg.
