RESUMO
Background and objectives: Published studies suggest that longer hemodialysis (HD) sessions are associated with improved morbidity and mortality, but few centers offer long sessions. The Western Infirmary renal unit has offered long overnight hemodialysis (LOH) (6 to 7 h) thrice weekly since 1998. The aim of this study was to describe patients who chose LOH and compare outcomes with patients on conventional hours (4 to 5 h) HD.
