At the 60th ERA Congress in Milan, Prof. Peter Blankestijn revealed remarkable findings from the CONVINCE trial. This groundbreaking study involved 1,360 patients, with a median follow-up of 30 months, proving that high-volume Hemodiafiltration (HV-HDF) offers significant clinical advantages for patient survival in comparison to more commonly used high-flux Hemodialysis.

Prof. Dr. Bernard Canaud is part of the trial's scientific committee and expressed enthusiasm for implementing HV-HDF as a therapeutic option for dialysis patients. The presented findings from the CONVINCE trial have the potential to reshape dialysis treatments and paves the way for future research and clinical advancements for dialysis patients.
