Claim Text:
1. A hemodialysis method comprising subjecting a patient to a hemodialysis using a dialysis fluid prepared with a dialysate, wherein the dialysate is a three-component dialysate and comprises: an agent S containing sodium chloride, an agent B containing sodium bicarbonate, and an agent A containing electrolyte components other than sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate, wherein the dialysate is used such that a ratio between amounts of the agent S and the agent B is adjusted during dialysis according to a disease state of the patient so as to change a bicarbonate ion concentration and to maintain a sodium ion concentration at a constant level in the dialysis fluid, wherein the change of the bicarbonate ion concentration and the maintaining of the sodium ion concentration are set before actual start of dialysis, and wherein the patient has metabolic acidosis, and the patient is subjected to the hemodialysis in order to ameliorate the metabolic acidosis.
