Abstract Background &objective: Heamodialysis is one of the most common replacement treatment of renal transplantation. Effective and adequate heamodialysis could improve the quality of life of patients. Inadequite heamodialysis can lead to multiple uremic complications.The aim of this study was to determine dialysis adequacy of hemodialytic patients based on urea kinetic modeling in hemodialysis center in Bojnourd. Materials&Methods: This descriptive study was carried out on 63 patients who were under dialysis treatment (at least 3 month and once a week) in Imam Ali hospital,Bojnurd. Hemoglobin , hematocrit ,cholesterol and BUN were measured before and after heamodialysis. Adequacy of dialysis was calculated by Daugirddas II. Data were analyzed by SPSS software 15 and presented with chi square, independent a paired t-test, ANOVA. Results: Our results showed that %36.1 of individuals have URR>65% and %47.7 individuals have KT/V >1.2.After dialysis mean blood pressure,weight,BUN showed meaningfull reduction.There was a significant difference between mean of BUN post dialysis and KT/V and URR. There wasn’t significant between KT/V URR and Hb Hct,Alt,cratinen,Chlostrol. Conclusion: According to this study the adequacy of dialysis in patients was lower than those of same reported studies .we suggest more study in order to determine the underlying reasons for dialysis inadequacy in these patients
