    Abstract

    A multicompartment model for the exchange mechanisms of Rb+ during dialysis has been developed. The ion is assumed to follow the same kinetics as K+. Electrodiffusion and active transport across the cell membranes as well as convective processes due to differently perfused tissue groups have been considered. A first clinical evaluation revealed a good agreement between simulated and measured data.
