Optimal exchange volume and dialysate flow rate in peritoneal dialysis. A clinical study. 1989

O P Kalra, and L Abrol, and J S Chopra, and S K Agarwal, and C Prakash

To find the optimal exchange volume and dialysate flow rate for use in peritoneal dialysis, 24 adult patients with acute or acute on chronic renal failure were studied. Based on the exchange volume and duration of one cycle, patients were randomly divided into 4 equal groups. Peritoneal clearances for urea and creatinine were calculated at 2, 8 and 14 hours during dialysis. Increase of dialysate flow rate improved the peritoneal clearance of various solutes, and for the same flow rate 2 liter exchange volume gave better results than 1 liter exchange volume.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
