Abstract: Objectives To observe the effect of the new hemodialysis technology- hemodiafiltration with endogenous reinfusion (HFR) in the treatment of pruritus in patients undergoing hemodialysis.  Methods Clinical controlled studies including pruritus symptoms, quality of sleep, quality of life and laboratory tests were performed before and after HFR.  Results There were significant differences in severity of itching (Z=-2.023, P=0.043), quality of sleep (t=7.318, P＜0.001) and quality of life (t=4.804, P=0.003) before and after HFR treatment (P<0.05).  Conclusion  HFR can reduce the pruritus symptoms in a short period of time, and improve the quality of sleep and quality of life in uremic patients.
