Mortality in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis considerably high. Previous study showed that mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis was strongly correlated with chronic inflammation. The current study examined whether the serum c-reative protein concentration (hsCRP) changed from pre- to post-dialysis. In addition, the current study also investigated the correlation between dialysis age and hsCRP in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. The study was a case-series study of 30 patients with hemodialysis. The patients were devided into three group based on dialysis age. Hemodialysis had been undergone for 4 hours, using hemoflow F8HPS, polysulfone synthetic dialysis membrane, and bicarbonate dialysis fluid. The primary outcome was serum concentration of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), which was assessed in the pre-and-post dialysis, measured using chemiluminescent method. Dialysis does increased the hsCRP post-dialysis. It resulted in significant (p
