Application of dynamic optimisation for planning a haemodialysis process.

In order to plan haemodialysis processes one should take into account the fact that these processes, in general, are described by different equations in different regions determined by phosphorus concentrations. This follows from the fact that mechanisms modelled by IV-compartment model are activated during dialysis. Therefore, advanced numerical tools have to be used in order to simulate and optimize these processes. The paper shows that these tools can be constructed and effectively applied in planning haemodialysis processes.
