• Dialysis was carried out in the Swedish Hospital Medical Center, which adjoins the Northwest Kidney Center, Seattle, WA. The conditions for dialysis, the specialized equipment, and the technical indoctrination were under the general guidance of the Medical Director of the Kidney Center and appropriate members of the staff. Hemodialysis‐trained technicians were sufficient in number to provide constant monitoring of the patient while undergoing hemodialysis. Servicing of the artificial kidney apparatus was done by the staff of the Northwest Kidney Center. A Scribner shunt cannulation was performed on the patient in preparation for hemodialysis. The arterial and venous cannulas was installed by a qualified surgeon specially trained in this procedure.

• Clinical management and evaluation of the patient was provided by Drs. William B. Hutchinson, Quin B. DeMarsh, John L. Cahill, Robert V. Erickson, Allan Lobb, and Orliss Wildermuth. Dr. Darrel Spackman provided counsel in amino acid methodology and interpretations. Hemodialysis training, counsel and technical assistance were provided by Dr. Jerry Pendras and the staff of the Northwest Kidney Center. Mr. Lester Teschner provided technical assistance in the amino acid assays.
