Much kind different dialyzer are used appropriately by the state of the patient.The one of performance evaluations about the dialyzer is a creatinine clearance(CL).CL depends on the effective film area.This research has been performed a verification experiment using 2 kinds of effective film areas (NV-15U and NV-13UL : TORAY INDUCTRIES INC.) about CL.The results of CL are 182.5[mL/min] at NV-15U and 180.0[mL/min] at NV-13UL.The price is the difference in the 1%.However, NV-15U is 1.2 times NV-13UL about the effective film area. Then, we thought there are other factors about the relation between the CL and the effective film area.The CL is influence of the flow velocity as well as the effective film area in other joint research.Therefore, it is suggested that the result of this verification experiment depends on influence by the flow velocity.
