1. A renal failure therapy method comprising:

  • (a) causing therapy fluid to flow to a renal failure therapy filter;

    (b) restricting flow to cause the therapy fluid to be pressed through a membrane of the renal failure therapy filter into an extracorporeal circuit so that at least twenty-five percent of the therapy fluid to the renal failure therapy filter performs convective clearance; and

    (c) using the renal failure therapy filter to cause at least a substantial amount of the remaining therapy fluid to perform diffusive clearance.
